Description

(Z)-1-Chloro-6-Pentadecene is a high-purity, long-chain chloroalkene with a defined stereochemistry. This compound serves as a valuable chemical intermediate and building block in advanced organic synthesis, prized for its reactive terminal chlorine and internal alkene functionality. It is primarily utilized by R&D laboratories and industrial manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical sectors for the production of complex molecules.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for constructing long hydrocarbon chains or as a precursor in cross-coupling reactions.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Serves as a key building block for creating novel pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators that require specific lipophilic properties.
• Specialty Polymer & Surfactant Production: Acts as a monomer or modifier in the development of specialty polymers, lubricant additives, and non-ionic surfactants.
• Organic Synthesis & Research: A versatile reagent in academic and industrial R&D for constructing complex organic molecules via reactions like olefin metathesis, alkylation, or further functionalization.
• Flavor & Fragrance Industry: Potential intermediate for synthesizing specific macrocyclic musk compounds or other fragrance ingredients.
• Material Science: Used in surface modification and the creation of self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) due to its long alkyl chain.
