Description

Oxiranemethanesulfonicacid,2-Methyl-(9Ci) is a specialized organic building block featuring a reactive epoxide (oxirane) ring and a sulfonic acid group. This unique bifunctional structure makes it a valuable intermediate for synthesizing advanced materials and fine chemicals where precise molecular architecture is required. It is primarily sought by research and development chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and polymer industries for creating novel compounds with tailored properties.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for introducing sulfonate or epoxy functionalities.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of new herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators requiring specific reactive sites.
• Polymer Modification: Acts as a cross-linking agent or functional monomer to impart hydrophilicity, ionic character, or reactive handles to polymers and resins.
• Bioconjugation Chemistry: Utilized for modifying proteins, peptides, or other biomolecules due to the epoxide ring's ability to react with nucleophilic amino acid residues.
• Material Science Research: Employed in the creation of advanced functional materials, such as ion-exchange membranes or surface coatings.
• Fine Chemical Production: Functions as a versatile building block for constructing complex organic molecules in custom synthesis and process development.

Quality Control

Our Oxiranemethanesulfonicacid,2-Methyl-(9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing to ensure high purity and consistency, meeting the stringent requirements for research and process chemistry. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and reliability for your critical applications.

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 under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong bases and oxidizing agents.
