Menthyl Chloride (CAS NO : 16052-42-9)

Menthyl chloride (CAS No: 16052-42-9) serves as a critical chiral building block in the global speciality chemical market, particularly valued in asymmetric synthesis for its ability to impart specific stereochemical outcomes in the construction of complex bioactive molecules. In the flavour and fragrance sector, this halogenated hydrocarbon is an essential intermediate for the production of high-purity menthol derivatives and cooling agents, where its unique alicyclic structure and reactivity allow for the precise formulation of products with superior sensory profiles. Furthermore, the pharmaceutical industry increasingly relies on (–)-menthyl chloride as a versatile reagent for the development of chiral intermediates and active pharmaceutical ingredients, as its predictable stereochemistry and susceptibility to nucleophilic substitution facilitate the efficient synthesis of targeted therapeutic compounds. As a globally established menthyl chloride supplier with >= 98% purity, we ensure dependable supply, consistent quality, and complete regulatory documentation, including menthyl chloride CoA and menthyl chloride TDS across all grades. Beyond supply, we support partners through the entire product lifecycle from route scouting, process and formulation development, and analytical method development to scale-up, process optimisation, and pilot-to-commercial manufacturing. Our teams also assist with GMP-compliant quality assurance, regulatory documentation, and global supply chain and logistics coordination.
