Description

Benzeneethanimidamide, α-Hydroxy-, (S)- (9Ci) is a chiral, non-proteinogenic amino acid derivative of significant interest in advanced organic synthesis. This compound matters as a versatile and high-purity chiral building block, enabling the construction of complex molecules with precise stereochemical control. It is primarily needed by research and development teams in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for applications such as peptidomimetic drug discovery and the synthesis of specialized bioactive compounds.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon in the research and development of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for peptidomimetics and enzyme inhibitors.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of advanced, stereospecific pesticides and herbicides where biological activity is enantiomer-dependent.
• Biochemical Research: Serves as a precursor or standard in the study of amino acid metabolism and enzyme mechanisms.
• Peptide Chemistry: Employed in solid-phase and solution-phase peptide synthesis to introduce non-natural amino acid residues with specific functional groups.
• Asymmetric Catalysis: Acts as a ligand precursor or chiral auxiliary in catalytic reactions to induce enantioselectivity.
• Material Science: Potential monomer for creating specialized polymers with unique optical or biological properties.

Quality Control

Our Benzeneethanimidamide, α-Hydroxy-, (S)- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chiral purity verification by HPLC, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and process development. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed chromatographic data are provided for 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 each use to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture. For long-term storage, consider using desiccants.
