Description

Amino(4-Isopropylphenyl)Acetonitrile CAS NO 953720-06-4 is a versatile nitrile-based intermediate featuring both an amino and an isopropylphenyl functional group. This unique structure makes it a valuable building block for synthesizing more complex molecules, particularly in the pharmaceutical and agrochemical sectors. It is primarily sought after by research and development chemists and process engineers for creating active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), advanced agrochemicals, and specialty fine chemicals.

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: A key precursor in the synthesis of novel drug candidates, particularly those targeting central nervous system (CNS) disorders and other therapeutic areas.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Used in the development of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and insecticides, leveraging its aromatic nitrile core.
• Fine Chemical Production: Serves as a building block for dyes, pigments, and other performance chemicals requiring specific aromatic amine functionalities.
• Ligand and Catalyst Development: The amino and nitrile groups make it useful for constructing chelating ligands in catalytic systems and coordination chemistry.
• Academic and Industrial Research: Employed in chemical libraries for high-throughput screening and structure-activity relationship (SAR) studies.

Quality Control

Our Amino(4-Isopropylphenyl)Acetonitrile is manufactured under strict quality management systems. Each batch undergoes rigorous analytical testing, including HPLC, GC, and NMR, to ensure identity, purity, and consistency. Certificates of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications are provided with every shipment and are available upon request to support your quality assurance protocols.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated place at room temperature (15-25°C). Due to its hygroscopic nature, the container must be kept tightly sealed to prevent moisture absorption. Keep away from incompatible materials such as strong oxidizing agents.
