Description

2-Furancarbonyl Chloride, Tetrahydro-5-Oxo- (9Ci) is a versatile and reactive heterocyclic acid chloride derivative, serving as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its value lies in its ability to introduce the tetrahydro-5-oxofuran-2-carbonyl moiety, a key structural feature for creating complex molecules with specific functionalities. This high-purity intermediate is essential for research and development chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries seeking to develop new active ingredients and fine chemicals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders or possessing anti-inflammatory properties.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, where the furanone scaffold can contribute to biological activity.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the manufacture of specialty chemicals, flavors, and fragrances requiring complex, oxygenated heterocyclic structures.
• Polymer Chemistry: Acts as a monomer or cross-linking agent for creating specialized polymers with unique thermal or mechanical properties.
• Academic & Contract Research: A valuable reagent for methodological studies and the construction of complex molecular libraries in academic and industrial R&D settings.
• Material Science: Potential use in synthesizing organic electronic materials or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) due to its bifunctional reactivity.

Quality Control

Our 2-Furancarbonyl Chloride, Tetrahydro-5-Oxo- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure high chemical purity and consistency. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, confirming compliance with agreed specifications. We support cGMP and ISO standards for pharmaceutical and industrial 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 and moisture-sensitive nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to prevent decomposition. Keep away from strong bases, oxidizing agents, and sources of ignition.
