Product Technical Details

Product Overview

4-Bromo-1-methoxy-2-(3-methoxypropoxy)benzene is a specialized organic compound serving as a critical building block in the pharmaceutical industry. With the CAS registry number 173336-76-0, this chemical entity is primarily utilized in the multi-step synthesis of antihypertensive agents, specifically as a key intermediate for Aliskiren hemifumarate. Our facility produces this compound under stringent quality control protocols to ensure consistency and reliability for downstream API manufacturing.

The molecular structure, defined by the formula C11H15BrO3, features a brominated benzene ring substituted with methoxy and methoxypropoxy groups. This specific configuration is essential for the subsequent coupling reactions required in the production of renin inhibitors. We understand the critical nature of supply chain stability for pharmaceutical clients, which is why we maintain robust inventory levels and scalable production capabilities.

Industrial Applications

The primary application of this compound is in the synthesis of Aliskiren, a direct renin inhibitor used to treat essential hypertension. As a key intermediate, its quality directly impacts the yield and purity of the final Active Pharmaceutical Ingredient (API). Beyond this specific use, the chemical structure offers versatility for researchers exploring novel cardiovascular therapeutics or related organic synthesis pathways requiring brominated anisole derivatives.

Storage and Handling

To maintain stability and prevent degradation, proper storage conditions are essential. The product should be kept in a tightly sealed container within a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area. We recommend storage temperatures between 0-6°C in a refrigerated environment, protected from light and moisture. An inert gas environment is advisable for long-term storage to prevent oxidation. Handling should be performed by trained personnel using appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) to ensure safety during weighing and transfer operations.
