Description

Benzene, 1-[(1S)-1-Methyl-2-Propenyl]-4-(Trifluoromethyl)- (9Ci) is a specialized chiral organic compound featuring a trifluoromethyl-substituted benzene core with an isoprenyl side chain. This unique structure makes it a valuable, high-purity building block for advanced chemical synthesis, particularly in the development of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and agrochemicals. It is primarily sought by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical and fine chemical industries who require precise stereochemistry and fluorinated motifs in their molecular designs.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral precursor in the synthesis of complex drug candidates, especially those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders or inflammatory diseases.
• Agrochemical Research: Serves as a building block for developing new-generation herbicides, fungicides, or insecticides where the trifluoromethyl group enhances biological activity and metabolic stability.
• Ligand & Catalyst Development: Used in the preparation of specialized chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis, critical for producing enantiomerically pure compounds.
• Material Science: Potential monomer or additive in the research of advanced polymers with specific optical or electronic properties due to its aromatic and fluorinated components.
• Fluorine Chemistry: An essential substrate for exploring new fluorination reactions and creating libraries of fluorinated compounds for screening in various life science applications.
