Description

Oppolzer'S Camphor Sultam CAS NO 94594-91-9 is a highly valuable chiral auxiliary and building block in organic synthesis, derived from camphor. This compound matters because it enables the stereoselective synthesis of complex molecules, a critical process for developing pharmaceuticals and advanced materials. It is primarily needed by research chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries for asymmetric synthesis and chiral resolution.

Application

• As a chiral auxiliary in asymmetric alkylation, aldol, and Diels-Alder reactions.
• For the synthesis of enantiomerically pure β-amino acids and other pharmaceutically active intermediates.
• In the preparation of chiral ligands for catalysis.
• As a resolving agent for the separation of racemic mixtures.
• Use in academic and industrial research for method development in stereoselective synthesis.
• Production of key intermediates for active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).
