Application

6-Chlorohexanoyl chloride may be used in the following processes:
  • Preparation of tert-butyl-N-(2-(6-chlorovaleryl)phenyl)carbamate, an intermediate for synthesizing the ketone analog of 2-amino-N-(4-(4-(1,2-benzisothiazol-3-yl)-1-piperazinyl)-butyl)benzamide hydrochloride.
  • Preparation of (S)-(-)6-chlorohexanoic acid (2-methoxymethylpyrrolidin-1-yl)amide, a precursor for synthesizing 2-alkyl-substituted lactones.
  • Deprotection and acylation of the pendant nitrogen during the preparation of a new cryptand with hydroxamate moiety that can bind with tribasic cations.
