Description

Oxiranecarboxaldehyde, 3-Acetyl- (9Ci) is a specialized epoxide derivative with a reactive aldehyde and acetyl functional groups. This unique bifunctional structure makes it a valuable high-purity chemical intermediate for advanced organic synthesis. It is primarily sought after by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries for constructing complex molecular architectures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key building block for synthesizing novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those with heterocyclic or chiral centers.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and production of advanced pesticides, herbicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Fine Chemical Production: Serves as a precursor for dyes, pigments, and performance chemicals requiring specific epoxide or aldehyde reactivity.
• Cross-linking Agent: Potential use in the formulation of specialty polymers, resins, and coatings where its dual functionality can create robust polymer networks.
• Academic & Industrial Research: A valuable reagent for methodological development in organic chemistry and material science research.

Quality Control

Every batch of Oxiranecarboxaldehyde, 3-Acetyl- (9Ci) is produced and tested under a strict quality management system. We provide comprehensive analytical data to ensure the material meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles are available for all shipments.

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 easily oxidized nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) after opening to maintain product integrity.
