Description

(2E,6E,10E)-12-Azido-3,7,11-Trimethyldodeca-2,6,10-Trien-1-Ol CAS NO 851667-96-4 is a specialized synthetic intermediate featuring a unique azido-functionalized isoprenoid backbone. This compound is valued for its role as a versatile chemical building block, enabling the introduction of an azide group for subsequent "click chemistry" reactions, such as the copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC). It is primarily sought after by research scientists and process chemists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for the development of novel bioactive molecules, polymers, and probes.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Serves as a key precursor in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly in medicinal chemistry programs targeting protein-protein interactions or requiring bioconjugation.
• Click Chemistry Reagent: Utilized as a critical component in CuAAC and strain-promoted azide-alkyne cycloaddition (SPAAC) reactions for labeling, bioconjugation, and polymer functionalization.
• Bioconjugation & Probe Development: Enables the site-specific labeling of biomolecules (proteins, antibodies, oligonucleotides) with fluorescent dyes, affinity tags, or other payloads for diagnostic and research applications.
• Polymer & Materials Science: Used to functionalize polymer chains or material surfaces with azide groups, facilitating the creation of smart materials, hydrogels, and surface coatings with tailored properties.
• Agrochemical Research: Acts as an intermediate in the design and synthesis of new active ingredients with potential herbicidal or insecticidal activity.
• Chemical Biology Tool: Employed in activity-based protein profiling (ABPP) and other chemoproteomic strategies to study enzyme function and discover new targets.
