Description

2-(2-Amino-6-Fluorophenyl)Acetic Acid CAS NO 887587-80-6 is a high-purity fluorinated aromatic building block of significant interest in advanced organic synthesis. Its core value lies in its bifunctional structure, featuring both a reactive carboxylic acid group and a protected amino group on a fluorinated benzene ring, enabling precise molecular construction. This compound is essential for research chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries, where it serves as a key intermediate for creating novel active ingredients.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A critical precursor in the synthesis of complex drug candidates, particularly those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders, oncology, and anti-inflammatory pathways.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of new-generation herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, where the fluorine atom enhances biological activity and metabolic stability.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Serves as a starting material for creating specialized chelating ligands and organocatalysts used in asymmetric synthesis.
• Material Science Research: Employed in the synthesis of fluorinated monomers for specialty polymers, liquid crystals, and advanced organic electronic materials.
• Chemical Biology Probes: Utilized to build fluorophore conjugates and activity-based probes for studying enzyme function and cellular processes.
• Custom Synthesis & Contract Manufacturing: Supplied to CDMOs (Contract Development and Manufacturing Organizations) for custom synthesis projects under cGMP or research-grade conditions.
