Description

N-(4-Acetylphenyl)propanamide (CAS NO 7470-51-1) is a high-purity organic intermediate featuring both an amide and an acetyl functional group on a phenyl ring. This unique bifunctional structure makes it a valuable building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules in advanced research and development. It is primarily sought after by pharmaceutical and agrochemical R&D teams for creating novel active ingredients and fine chemical manufacturers for producing specialized dyes and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of potential drug candidates, particularly those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders or acting as enzyme inhibitors.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in research for developing new herbicides, fungicides, or plant growth regulators due to its modifiable amide and ketone groups.
• Fine Chemical Production: Serves as a building block for advanced organic synthesis, including the creation of complex dyes, pigments, and photographic chemicals.
• Material Science Research: Investigated for incorporation into polymers or organic electronic materials to impart specific thermal or optical properties.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: Utilized in chemical research laboratories for methodological studies and the development of novel synthetic pathways.

Quality Control

Our N-(4-Acetylphenyl)propanamide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR and NMR for structural confirmation, and loss on drying for moisture content. We provide a detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) with every shipment, ensuring traceability and compliance with your research or production specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
