Description

(R)-n-Formyl Methamphetamine CAS NO 894793-16-9 is a chiral, formylated derivative of methamphetamine, serving as a critical synthetic intermediate in advanced organic chemistry. Its primary value lies in its role as a protected or modified precursor for the stereoselective synthesis of more complex pharmaceutical compounds and research chemicals. This high-purity intermediate is essential for R&D chemists and process development scientists working in pharmaceutical development, forensic analysis, and specialized fine chemical manufacturing.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key chiral building block for the research and development of novel active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and reference standards.
• Chemical Synthesis: Used in stereoselective organic synthesis to introduce the (R)-configured phenethylamine scaffold into target molecules.
• Forensic Science & Analytical Reference: Serves as a high-purity certified reference material (CRM) for analytical method development, calibration, and forensic identification in controlled substance analysis.
• Metabolite & Impurity Standard: Employed in the synthesis of potential metabolites or process-related impurities for pharmacological and toxicological studies.
• Academic & Institutional Research: Utilized in university and government laboratories for studies in neurochemistry, receptor binding, and synthetic methodology.
• Process Chemistry Development: Acts as a starting material or intermediate for scaling up synthetic routes under current Good Manufacturing Practice (cGMP) conditions for regulated markets.

Quality Control

Every batch of (R)-n-Formyl Methamphetamine is manufactured and tested to meet exacting standards for research and development use. Our rigorous quality control protocol includes identity confirmation, purity assay, and chiral purity verification to ensure batch-to-batch consistency and reliability. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment, and custom synthesis under GMP-grade conditions can be discussed for advanced projects.

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 in a dry environment to prevent moisture absorption and degradation. Keep away from incompatible materials.
