Description

D-Cyclohexylglycinol is a high-value, chiral amino alcohol building block with significant utility in asymmetric synthesis. Its rigid cyclohexyl backbone and bifunctional nature make it an essential intermediate for constructing complex molecules with precise stereochemistry. This compound is particularly sought after by the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for the development of active ingredients, chiral catalysts, and advanced materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediates: A key chiral synthon for the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in antiviral, anticancer, and central nervous system (CNS) drug candidates.
• Chiral Ligand & Catalyst Preparation: Used to construct sophisticated ligands for asymmetric catalysis, enabling enantioselective hydrogenation, alkylation, and other critical transformations.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Employed in the production of advanced, enantiomerically pure herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Fine Chemical & Specialty Material Production: Serves as a building block for liquid crystals, advanced polymers, and other performance materials requiring specific stereochemistry.
• Academic & R&D Laboratories: A valuable reagent for methodological development in organic and medicinal chemistry research.

Quality Control

Our D-Cyclohexylglycinol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity (HPLC), chemical purity (GC/HPLC), and identity confirmation (IR, NMR) to ensure it meets the stringent requirements of our global clientele. A detailed Certificate of Analysis (COA) is provided with every shipment, and we support compliance with relevant regulatory frameworks.

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 nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption, which can affect product quality.
