CAS:637-90-1 

Product purity:98% Appearance:Colorless liquid

Product Name: 1,2-Epoxy-5-Cyclooctene

CAS RN: 637-90-1 

1,2-Epoxy-5-Cyclooctene is a highly versatile and strained bifunctional compound that serves as a critical molecular building block in advanced organic synthesis. This molecule uniquely incorporates both an epoxide ring and a carbon-carbon double bond within an eight-membered ring system, offering two distinct, reactive sites for strategic chemical transformations.

Its inherent strain and functional group diversity make it an invaluable scaffold for constructing complex molecular architectures, including medium-sized carbocycles and heterocycles. Researchers extensively utilize it in ring-opening reactions, cycloadditions, and as a key precursor in pharmaceutical development and material science.

As a leading supplier, we guarantee high purity and consistent quality, ensuring reliable performance in your most demanding R&D and scale-up applications. This compound is an essential tool for driving innovation in medicinal chemistry and chemical biology.

    Detailed Product Information: 1,2-Epoxy-5-Cyclooctene

    Unlock Synthetic Potential with a Strained, Bifunctional Building Block

    1,2-Epoxy-5-Cyclooctene is a premium molecular building block engineered for sophisticated synthetic applications. Its structure features a reactive epoxide group and an alkene functionality embedded in a conformationally strained cyclooctene ring. This strategic design provides chemists with unparalleled flexibility to perform sequential and selective reactions from a single, compact scaffold.

    Key Applications & Strategic Advantages:

    Diversified Synthesis: The epoxide ring is highly susceptible to nucleophilic ring-opening reactions, allowing for the installation of various functional groups. Concurrently, the double bond is primed for reactions such as hydrogenation, oxidation, or cycloaddition (e.g., Diels-Alder), enabling rapid complexity generation.

    Complex Molecule Construction: This compound is exceptionally valuable for synthesizing challenging medium-sized rings (8-10 members) and bridged bicyclic structures, which are common motifs in natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

    Material Science Explorer: Its unique structure serves as a precursor for developing novel polymers and functional materials with specific chemical and physical properties.
