Description

n-(7-Hydroxy-1-Naphthyl)Methanesulphonamide is a specialized organic intermediate featuring a naphthalene core substituted with both a hydroxyl and a methanesulphonamide functional group. This unique structure makes it a valuable building block for the synthesis of more complex molecules, particularly in advanced pharmaceutical and agrochemical research. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the fine chemical and life sciences industries. The compound, identified by CAS number 78182-14-6, requires careful handling due to its specific reactivity profile.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those targeting specific enzyme inhibition or receptor modulation.
• Agrochemical Research: Used in the development of new herbicides, fungicides, or plant growth regulators where the sulphonamide moiety is critical for bioactivity.
• Dye and Pigment Synthesis: Acts as an intermediate for creating specialized naphthalene-based dyes, optical brighteners, or pigments due to its conjugated aromatic system.
• Material Science: Potential monomer or additive in the production of advanced polymers with specific thermal or optical properties.
• Chemical Research: Employed in academic and industrial laboratories for methodological studies in organic synthesis, such as coupling reactions or functional group transformations.

Quality Control

Our n-(7-Hydroxy-1-Naphthyl)Methanesulphonamide is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via spectroscopic methods, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and consistency.

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 and easily oxidized nature, it is recommended to store the material under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) for long-term preservation and to minimize degradation.
