Description

2-Furoyl Chloride, 5-Butyl- (7Ci) is a specialized furan-based acid chloride derivative, identified by CAS NO 93116-69-9. This compound serves as a versatile and reactive building block for introducing the 5-butylfuran-2-carbonyl moiety into target molecules, enabling the synthesis of novel materials and fine chemicals. It is primarily sought by research and development chemists and process engineers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and advanced materials sectors for constructing complex molecular architectures.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and drug candidates, particularly those requiring furan-based heterocycles for bioactivity.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of novel herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, where the butylfuran structure can contribute to specific biological interactions.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: Acts as a starting material for creating specialized ligands used in catalytic systems and metal-organic frameworks (MOFs).
• Polymer and Material Science: Employed in the production of specialty polymers, coatings, and functional materials where the furan ring imparts unique chemical or physical properties.
• Organic Synthesis Research: A valuable reagent in academic and industrial R&D for amide bond formation, Friedel-Crafts acylation, and other acyl transfer reactions.
• Fine Chemical Production: Intermediate in the manufacture of dyes, flavors, fragrances, and other high-value specialty chemicals.

Quality Control

Every batch of 2-Furoyl Chloride, 5-Butyl- (7Ci) is manufactured and tested under strict quality management protocols to ensure consistency and reliability for your synthetic processes. Our products undergo rigorous quality testing, including advanced chromatographic and spectroscopic methods, to ensure compliance with industry standards. A comprehensive Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing purity, identity, and impurity profiles is available upon request to support your quality assurance and regulatory documentation.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Due to its hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) nature and reactivity as a strong acid/organic solvent derivative, 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 moisture, heat, and incompatible materials such as bases, alcohols, and amines.
