Description

n-(2-Aminoethyl)-D-Gluconamide is a multifunctional amino sugar derivative that combines the properties of gluconic acid and ethylenediamine. This unique structure makes it a valuable intermediate and functional additive in advanced chemical synthesis and formulation. It is particularly sought after by industries requiring biocompatible chelating agents, surface modifiers, and precursors for specialty polymers. Key sectors include pharmaceutical development, personal care, and high-performance material science.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Used in the synthesis of drug conjugates, prodrugs, and diagnostic agents due to its biocompatibility and reactive amine functionality.
• Cosmetic & Personal Care Ingredient: Acts as a skin-conditioning agent, humectant, and chelator in formulations for creams, lotions, and serums.
• Bioconjugation & Cross-linking: Serves as a spacer or linker molecule for attaching biomolecules, dyes, or other functional groups in biotech applications.
• Metal Chelation & Corrosion Inhibition: Effective as a green chelating agent in industrial water treatment, cleaning formulations, and metal surface treatment processes.
• Polymer Modification: Utilized as a monomer or additive to introduce hydrophilic and functional groups into polymers, enhancing their properties for medical or specialty coatings.
• Research & Development: A key reagent in organic and biochemical research for studying carbohydrate-protein interactions and developing new materials.

Quality Control

Our n-(2-Aminoethyl)-D-Gluconamide is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity, identity confirmation by IR and NMR, and specific tests for residual solvents and heavy metals. We provide Certificates of Analysis (COA) with every shipment to ensure traceability and compliance with your specifications. Our quality commitment supports applications in GMP-sensitive environments like pharmaceutical R&D.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture, which can affect product stability and performance.
