Description

2-Aminomethyl-Cyclohexanol is a versatile amino alcohol derivative of cyclohexane, serving as a key chiral building block and intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. Its bifunctional structure, containing both amino and hydroxyl groups, makes it valuable for creating complex molecules with specific stereochemistry. This compound is particularly relevant for researchers and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries seeking to develop new active ingredients or functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A crucial chiral synthon for the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly in developing central nervous system (CNS) drugs, antivirals, and other therapeutic agents.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators where its cyclohexane backbone provides structural stability.
• Ligand and Catalyst Preparation: Serves as a precursor for chiral ligands and catalysts used in asymmetric synthesis, enhancing the efficiency and selectivity of chemical reactions.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Formulation: Incorporated into specialty chemical formulations for metal surface treatment and protection due to its amine functionality.
• Epoxy Resin Curing Agent: Acts as a hardener or cross-linking agent in epoxy resin systems, improving mechanical and thermal properties of the final polymer.
• Research & Development: A valuable compound for academic and industrial R&D in medicinal chemistry and material science for exploring new molecular entities.

Quality Control

Our 2-Aminomethyl-Cyclohexanol is produced under a strict quality management system. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chromatographic purity analysis and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for synthetic applications. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are provided to guarantee traceability and consistency for your critical processes.

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 stability and performance. Keep away from strong oxidizing agents.
