Description

2-Butoxy-5-Carboxyaniline, 2-Amino-4-Carboxyphenyl But-1-Yl Ether is a specialized aromatic amine derivative with both amino and carboxylic acid functional groups, modified by a butoxy ether linkage. This unique bifunctional structure makes it a valuable high-purity intermediate for synthesizing complex organic molecules, particularly in advanced material and pharmaceutical research. It is primarily sought after by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty chemical industries for constructing novel active compounds and functional polymers.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring a functionalized aniline core.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and development of new herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Dye and Pigment Precursor: Serves as a starting material for creating azo dyes and other complex colorants due to its aromatic amine group.
• Polymer Chemistry: Acts as a monomer or chain modifier in the production of specialty polyamides, polyimides, and other high-performance polymers.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Material Research: Utilized as a synthetic intermediate for developing advanced organic electronic materials.
• Cross-coupling Reactions: The aniline moiety makes it a suitable substrate for Buchwald-Hartwig amination and other palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions.

Quality Control

Our 2-Butoxy-5-Carboxyaniline is produced under strict quality management protocols. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation via FT-IR and NMR, to ensure it meets the stringent requirements for research and process chemistry. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing batch-specific results are provided and available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
