Description

(R)-3-(3-Phenoxyphenyl)-β-Alanine is a high-purity, single-enantiomer chiral intermediate of significant commercial interest. This compound matters as a key building block in the synthesis of advanced active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and fine chemicals, where stereochemical purity is critical for efficacy and safety. It is primarily needed by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries developing novel therapeutic agents and high-value chemical products.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A crucial chiral synthon for the research and development of novel small-molecule drugs, particularly in therapeutic areas requiring high stereoselectivity.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced, enantiomerically pure pesticides and herbicides, where the specific (R)-configuration can be essential for biological activity.
• Ligand and Catalyst Preparation: Serves as a precursor for chiral ligands and organocatalysts used in asymmetric synthesis to create other valuable enantiopure compounds.
• Biochemical Research: Employed in proteomics and enzymology studies as a modified amino acid analog to investigate enzyme-substrate interactions and metabolic pathways.
• Fine Chemical Production: Acts as a specialized intermediate for synthesizing complex molecules used in materials science, dyes, and advanced polymer research.

Quality Control

Our (R)-3-(3-Phenoxyphenyl)-β-Alanine is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral HPLC for enantiomeric excess (ee) verification, to ensure it meets the high-purity standards required for pharmaceutical R&D and production. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing identity, purity, chiral purity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch 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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
