Description

Methyl (3S)-(+)-3-(1-Methylindol-3-Yl)& CAS NO 71711-31-4 is a high-purity, chiral indole derivative characterized by its specific stereochemistry at the 3-position. This compound is a critical chiral building block and synthetic intermediate in advanced organic synthesis, valued for its role in constructing complex molecular architectures. It is primarily sought after by research institutions and pharmaceutical companies engaged in the development of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals where stereochemical control is paramount.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon in the research and development of potential drug candidates, particularly for central nervous system (CNS) targets and other therapeutic areas.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the synthesis of advanced, stereospecific pesticides and herbicides where biological activity is enantiomer-dependent.
• Asymmetric Catalysis Research: Serves as a valuable substrate or ligand precursor in the development and testing of new chiral catalysts and methodologies.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the manufacture of specialty chemicals, flavors, and fragrances that require indole-based chiral centers.
• Academic & R&D Laboratories: Utilized in synthetic organic chemistry research for studying reaction mechanisms and constructing complex natural product analogs.
