Description

3-(2-Aminopyridin-4-Yl)Propanoic Acid is a high-purity organic building block featuring both an amino and a carboxylic acid functional group on a pyridine core. This bifunctional nature makes it a versatile and critical intermediate for constructing complex molecular architectures in advanced research and development. It is primarily sought after by pharmaceutical and agrochemical R&D teams for the synthesis of novel active ingredients, including kinase inhibitors and other biologically relevant heterocyclic compounds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block in the synthesis of targeted small molecule drugs, particularly kinase inhibitors and other enzyme modulators.
• Agrochemical Research: Used in the development of new herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides with specific modes of action.
• Chemical Biology: Serves as a precursor for fluorescent probes, molecular tags, and other tools used in biochemical assays and diagnostic research.
• Material Science: Potential monomer or cross-linking agent for creating functional polymers and advanced organic materials.
• Academic & Contract Research: Essential reagent for synthetic chemistry research in universities and CROs (Contract Research Organizations).
• Custom Synthesis: Foundation for the bespoke production of complex molecules for client-specific projects.

Quality Control

Our 3-(2-Aminopyridin-4-Yl)Propanoic Acid is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and NMR for structural confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and development applications. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with each shipment to guarantee traceability, consistency, and compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (typically 15-25°C). This compound may be hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive); therefore, the container should be kept tightly sealed when not in use to prevent absorption of atmospheric moisture.
