Description

Acetrizoic Acid is a high-purity, iodinated organic compound primarily used as a key intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis. Its value lies in its specific chemical structure, which makes it essential for producing certain diagnostic agents and contrast media. This product is critical for manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, research, and fine chemical sectors who require a reliable and consistent raw material for advanced synthesis processes.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A crucial building block in the synthesis of iodinated contrast agents used in X-ray and medical imaging diagnostics.
• Research & Development: Serves as a valuable reagent in organic chemistry research for developing new diagnostic compounds and studying iodine-containing molecules.
• Fine Chemical Synthesis: Used in the multi-step synthesis of specialized organic compounds where its triiodobenzene structure is required.
• Diagnostic Agent Production: A key precursor in the manufacturing chain for non-ionic, low-osmolar contrast media, improving patient safety during radiographic procedures.

Quality Control

Our Acetrizoic Acid is manufactured under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay, impurity profiling, and identification, to ensure it meets the high standards required for pharmaceutical intermediate applications. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, related substances, and other critical parameters is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and compliance.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product stability and performance.
