Description

Ethanone, 1-[4-(Aminomethyl)Phenyl]- (9Ci) is a versatile aromatic ketone building block featuring both a ketone and a primary benzylamine functional group. This bifunctional nature makes it a critical intermediate for the synthesis of more complex molecules in advanced chemical manufacturing. It is primarily sought after by research and development laboratories and industrial producers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical sectors for constructing active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), ligands, and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of various drug candidates and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring a benzylamine-linked acetophenone scaffold.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides where its aromatic structure serves as a core building block.
• Ligand and Catalyst Preparation: The amine and carbonyl groups allow for the creation of chelating ligands used in homogeneous catalysis and metal complex formation.
• Polymer and Material Science: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent in the production of specialty polymers, resins, and advanced functional materials.
• Organic Synthesis Building Block: Employed in research for constructing complex heterocycles, Schiff bases, and other fine chemicals through reactions at either functional group.
• Bioconjugation and Probe Development: Utilized in biochemical research for labeling and modifying biomolecules due to its reactive amine handle.

Quality Control

Our Ethanone, 1-[4-(Aminomethyl)Phenyl]- (9Ci) is produced under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation by IR and NMR spectroscopy, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, assay, and impurity profiles is provided with every shipment and is available upon request.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated place at room temperature (typically 15-25°C). Due to its sensitivity, the container should be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) to prevent oxidation and moisture uptake. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
