Description

2-Pentanol, 3-Amino-, Hydrochloride (1:1), (2R,3S)- is a high-purity, stereochemically defined chiral building block and intermediate. This compound is valued for its role in the synthesis of complex molecules, particularly in pharmaceutical research and development where specific stereochemistry is critical for biological activity. It is primarily needed by R&D chemists and process development scientists in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and fine chemical industries for creating novel active ingredients and advanced materials.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key chiral synthon for the research and production of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), especially those targeting neurological or infectious diseases.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of advanced, stereospecific pesticides and herbicides.
• Asymmetric Catalysis: Serves as a precursor or ligand in catalytic systems for stereoselective chemical transformations.
• Fine Chemical Production: Employed in the multistep synthesis of complex, high-value specialty chemicals and flavors/fragrances.
• Academic & Industrial R&D: A valuable tool for methodological development in organic synthesis and medicinal chemistry programs.
• Peptidomimetic Research: Used as a non-natural amino alcohol derivative in the design of peptide analogs and protease inhibitors.
