Description

3-Amino-4-Iodophenol is a halogenated aniline derivative that serves as a versatile and critical building block in advanced organic synthesis. Its unique structure, featuring both an amino and an iodo substituent on the phenol ring, makes it a valuable intermediate for constructing complex molecules. This compound is particularly essential for research and development chemists in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors, where it is used to create novel active ingredients and functional materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key precursor in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly for compounds targeting specific receptors or requiring halogenated aromatic systems.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Building block for developing new herbicides, fungicides, and pesticides, leveraging the reactivity of the iodine atom for further functionalization.
• Dye and Pigment Manufacturing: Intermediate in the production of specialized azo dyes and high-performance pigments where the amino and phenolic groups contribute to color and binding properties.
• Material Science Research: Used in the development of organic electronic materials, such as charge-transport layers or molecular sensors.
• Cross-Coupling Reactions: Serves as a substrate in palladium-catalyzed reactions (e.g., Suzuki, Heck, Sonogashira) due to the presence of the aryl iodide moiety.
• Bioconjugation and Probe Development: Useful for labeling biomolecules or creating fluorescent probes in biochemical and diagnostic research.

Quality Control

Our 3-Amino-4-Iodophenol is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including HPLC for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets the high standards required for research and industrial synthesis. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing specific results for purity, related substances, and residual solvents is provided with every shipment.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area at controlled room temperature (15-25°C). Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flame. Due to its light-sensitive nature, containers should be amber-colored or stored in light-resistant secondary packaging.
