Description

2-Hexanone, 6-Isocyanato- (9Ci) is a specialized organic compound featuring both a ketone and a highly reactive isocyanate functional group. This bifunctional nature makes it a valuable chemical building block for synthesizing advanced polymers and specialty chemicals. It is primarily sought after by R&D chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical intermediates, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for creating novel urethane and urea derivatives.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of specialized herbicides, fungicides, and pesticides requiring specific urethane linkages.
• Polymer & Resin Modification: Acts as a cross-linking agent or chain extender in polyurethane, polyurea, and other specialty polymer systems to enhance properties like hardness, chemical resistance, or adhesion.
• Coatings and Adhesives: Incorporated into high-performance coating and adhesive formulations to improve durability and cross-link density.
• Chemical Research & Development: Employed in academic and industrial R&D labs for exploring new reactions and creating novel chemical entities.
• Specialty Chemical Manufacturing: Utilized as a versatile intermediate for producing surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, and other performance chemicals.

Quality Control

Our 2-Hexanone, 6-Isocyanato- (9Ci) is produced under stringent quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography and spectroscopy, to ensure high purity and consistency. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with each shipment to support your quality assurance and regulatory needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, containers must be kept tightly sealed under a dry inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to prevent degradation. Isolate from moisture, heat, and incompatible materials such as alcohols, amines, and strong bases.
