Description

Benzylaminoacetic Acid Hydrochloride is a versatile organic salt widely utilized as a key synthetic intermediate in advanced chemical manufacturing. Its primary value lies in providing a protected glycine moiety with a benzyl group, facilitating the synthesis of complex peptides and other nitrogen-containing compounds. This product is essential for research institutions and industrial manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical sectors seeking reliable, high-purity building blocks.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A crucial building block in the synthesis of peptide-based drugs, enzyme inhibitors, and other active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators that require specific amino acid derivatives.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a reagent in proteomics research, for modifying peptides, and in studying enzyme-substrate interactions.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the manufacture of specialty chemicals, including surfactants, chelating agents, and corrosion inhibitors.
• Material Science: Acts as a monomer or modifier in the synthesis of specialized polymers and functional materials.

Quality Control

Our Benzylaminoacetic Acid Hydrochloride is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, IR for identification, and loss on drying for moisture content, to ensure it meets exacting standards. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
