Description

Oxirane, 2-Ethenyl-3-(1-Hexynyl)-, cis- (9Ci) is a specialized, high-value oxirane derivative characterized by its unique cis-configuration and the presence of both vinyl and hexynyl functional groups. This compound serves as a critical advanced synthetic intermediate for constructing complex molecular architectures in fine chemical and pharmaceutical research. It is primarily sought after by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for applications requiring precise stereochemistry and functional group manipulation.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring specific stereocenters and alkyne/alkene handles for further derivatization (e.g., Click Chemistry).
• Agrochemical Research: Used in the development of new generation herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators where the oxirane ring offers reactivity for ring-opening reactions to create complex ethers or alcohols.
• Polymer & Material Science: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent for producing specialty polymers with tailored properties, such as epoxy resins, adhesives, or coatings with enhanced functionality.
• Ligand & Catalyst Synthesis: Valuable precursor for creating chiral ligands and organometallic catalysts used in asymmetric synthesis, leveraging its defined stereochemistry.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Intermediate in the multi-step synthesis of complex natural products, flavors, fragrances, and other high-value specialty chemicals.

Quality Control

Every batch of Oxirane, 2-Ethenyl-3-(1-Hexynyl)-, cis- (9Ci) is produced and analyzed under strict quality protocols to ensure high purity and batch-to-batch consistency, critical for research and development applications. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

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 under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame.
