Description

(S)-(+)-2-Heptyl Isocyanate, Tech. 90% is a chiral, highly volatile isocyanate compound. This technical-grade material is a crucial chiral building block for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure agrochemicals and pharmaceuticals, where stereochemistry is critical for biological activity. It is primarily utilized by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the fine chemical and advanced materials sectors.

Application

• Chiral Intermediate for the synthesis of enantiomerically pure carbamate and urea derivatives.
• Agrochemical Research: Key building block in developing novel, stereoselective pesticides and herbicides.
• Pharmaceutical Development: Used in creating active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) where the (S)-configuration is required.
• Ligand and Catalyst Synthesis: Serves as a precursor for chiral ligands used in asymmetric catalysis.
• Polymer Modification: Employed to introduce chiral centers into specialty polyurethanes and polymers.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Useful for labeling and modifying biomolecules in a stereospecific manner.

Quality Control

Our technical-grade (S)-(+)-2-Heptyl Isocyanate is produced under controlled conditions to ensure batch-to-batch consistency. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, enantiomeric excess, and impurity profiles are available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its high volatility and moisture sensitivity, containers must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening. Keep away from strong bases and incompatible materials.
