CAS 127337-60-4 · Fluorinated Compound · 5 functional traits · cGMP compliant · Ships from USA in 2-3 days
2-Chloromethyl-3-Methyl-4-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxy)Pyridine Hcl (CAS Number: 127337-60-4) is a fluorine-containing building block with enhanced metabolic stability featuring a Pyridine ring with defined stereochemistry. ChemContract Research supplies this moderate-complexity compound in high purity from our Huntington Beach, California facility, ensuring consistent quality and reliable domestic delivery throughout the United States. Supplied as the hydrochloride salt form for enhanced stability and handling.
The carbon–fluorine bond is the strongest single bond to carbon (485 kJ/mol). This exceptional stability underpins the "fluorine scan" strategy used in medicinal chemistry to optimize drug candidates. Chloro substituents serve a dual role in drug design — as synthetic handles for late-stage functionalization and as bioisosteres that modulate lipophilicity and binding affinity. Heterocyclic rings appear in approximately 85% of all biologically active compounds. The nitrogen, oxygen, or sulfur heteroatom modulates electron density, hydrogen bonding, and aqueous solubility.
Primary applications include metabolic blocking strategy — fluorine substitution to improve drug half-life and nucleophilic aromatic substitution (snar) for ether and amine formation. This compound serves researchers and manufacturers across the pharmaceutical, diagnostic imaging, agrochemical sectors. Whether you require 2-Chloromethyl-3-Methyl-4-(2,2,2-Trifluoroethoxy)Pyridine Hcl for early-stage research, process development, or commercial-scale production, ChemContract Research offers flexible ordering from milligram to multi-kilogram quantities with custom synthesis options and full batch documentation including Certificates of Analysis (CoA) and Safety Data Sheets.
