The production of high-purity chemical intermediates is a cornerstone of innovation in industries ranging from pharmaceuticals to advanced materials. For manufacturers like us, the synthesis of 3-Hydroxy-2,4,6-triiodobenzoic Acid (HTBA), known by its CAS number 53279-72-4, involves precise chemical engineering and rigorous quality control to meet demanding industry specifications.

The journey to producing quality HTBA typically begins with carefully selected starting materials. The core synthetic route often involves the strategic iodination of a benzoic acid derivative. This process requires meticulous control over reaction parameters such as temperature, reactant concentrations, and reaction time to ensure the correct substitution pattern—specifically, the addition of three iodine atoms at the 2, 4, and 6 positions of the benzoic acid ring, alongside the hydroxyl group at the 3 position. Achieving high regioselectivity is critical to minimize byproduct formation and maximize the yield of the desired HTBA.

Following the primary synthesis, purification steps are paramount. Crude HTBA is often purified through recrystallization, washing, or chromatographic techniques to achieve the high purity levels (often above 97.0%) demanded by our clients in the pharmaceutical and medical imaging sectors. The off-white to yellow powder appearance is a characteristic trait that further indicates successful purification.

Quality control is integrated throughout the manufacturing process. From raw material inspection to in-process monitoring and final product testing, each stage is managed to ensure compliance with established standards. Analytical methods such as HPLC are employed to quantify purity and identify any residual solvents or related impurities. For buyers looking to purchase HTBA, understanding these QC measures provides confidence in the product’s suitability for their applications.

Our role as a manufacturer extends beyond synthesis; it encompasses providing reliable supply and comprehensive technical support. We aim to be more than just a supplier; we position ourselves as a partner, offering competitive pricing for bulk orders and ensuring that our HTBA is consistently available. For those in need of this critical intermediate, our manufacturing expertise in China allows us to serve global markets effectively.

The intrinsic value of HTBA lies in its high iodine content, making it a foundational compound for creating radiopaque agents essential for medical diagnostics. It also serves as a versatile intermediate in complex organic synthesis, opening avenues for novel drug development. We are dedicated to advancing these fields by consistently delivering high-quality 3-Hydroxy-2,4,6-triiodobenzoic Acid.
