Description

3-Cyclohexene-1-Carbonyl Chloride, 6-Methyl-, trans- (9Ci) is a specialized, high-purity organic intermediate featuring a reactive acid chloride functional group on a substituted cyclohexene ring. This compound matters for its role as a critical building block in advanced organic synthesis, enabling the efficient introduction of the trans-6-methyl-3-cyclohexenecarbonyl moiety. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries for constructing complex molecular architectures, such as active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and novel crop protection agents.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block for the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly in medicinal chemistry programs targeting central nervous system (CNS) or anti-inflammatory applications.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the research and development of new herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, leveraging its unique cyclohexene scaffold.
• Advanced Material Precursor: Serves as a monomer or cross-linking agent in the development of specialty polymers and resins with tailored thermal or mechanical properties.
• Organic Synthesis Reagent: Employed in academic and industrial laboratories for Friedel-Crafts acylation, amide coupling, and esterification reactions to create complex organic molecules.
• Fragrance and Flavor Chemistry: Potential intermediate for synthesizing specific terpene-derived aroma chemicals and flavoring agents.

Quality Control

Our 3-Cyclohexene-1-Carbonyl Chloride, 6-Methyl-, trans- (9Ci) is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Every batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including chromatography (HPLC/GC) and spectroscopic methods (NMR, IR), to ensure high chemical purity and structural identity. Certificates of Analysis (COA) with detailed batch-specific results are available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation needs.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic and moisture-sensitive nature, store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen or argon) in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place. Recommended storage temperature is 2-8°C for long-term stability. Keep away from strong acids, bases, and oxidizing agents.
