Description

Sodium Alpha,4-Dihydroxy-3-Methoxy-α-Methylbenzeneethanesulphonate CAS NO 83682-27-3 is a high-purity, water-soluble sulfonate derivative of a substituted benzene compound. This specialty chemical is valued for its unique combination of phenolic and sulfonate functional groups, which impart properties useful in advanced synthesis and formulation. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries for use as a key intermediate or functional additive.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a crucial building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring a sulfonated phenolic moiety.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators where its structure contributes to bioavailability and efficacy.
• Polymer Modification: Acts as a functional monomer or additive to introduce sulfonate groups into polymers, enhancing hydrophilicity, dyeability, or ionic character.
• Research & Development: Employed in chemical R&D labs for exploring new synthetic pathways and creating novel compounds with specific biological or physical properties.
• Dye and Pigment Intermediate: Functions as a precursor in the manufacture of specialized dyes and organic pigments, contributing to color fastness and solubility.
• Crosslinking Agent: Utilized in formulations requiring chemical crosslinking, such as in certain resins or hydrogel systems.

Quality Control

Our products undergo rigorous quality testing to ensure compliance with industry standards for high-purity intermediates. Every batch is analyzed using advanced techniques including HPLC, NMR, and mass spectrometry to confirm identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) documenting all critical parameters are available upon request. We adhere to a quality management system to ensure traceability and reliability for our global B2B clients.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after each use to minimize exposure to atmospheric moisture. Keep away from incompatible materials.
