Description

(R)-(-)-4-(2,3-Epoxypropoxy)Carbazole is a high-purity, single-enantiomer chiral building block and advanced pharmaceutical intermediate. This compound is valued for its role in the synthesis of optically active molecules, where its epoxide functionality and carbazole moiety enable precise chemical transformations. It is primarily needed by research institutions and manufacturers in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical industries developing novel active ingredients, particularly for applications requiring specific stereochemistry.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key chiral synthon for the research and development of new drug candidates, especially in central nervous system (CNS) and oncology therapeutic areas.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the production of enantiomerically pure pesticides and herbicides, where biological activity is often stereospecific.
• Liquid Crystal & OLED Materials: Serves as a precursor for functionalized carbazole derivatives used in electronic materials for displays and lighting.
• Asymmetric Catalysis Research: Employed as a substrate or ligand precursor in academic and industrial research exploring new catalytic processes.
• Polymer Modification: Utilized to introduce reactive epoxy and carbazole groups into polymer chains, modifying thermal, optical, or electronic properties.

Quality Control

Our (R)-(-)-4-(2,3-Epoxypropoxy)Carbazole is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including chiral purity (HPLC), chemical purity (HPLC), and identity confirmation (IR, NMR) to ensure it meets exacting R&D and production standards. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment.

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 (moisture-sensitive) nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed after opening to prevent degradation from atmospheric moisture.
