4,5-dihydro-6H-cyclopenta[d]thiazol-6-one

China [CN]

Main Uses

Organic Synthesis Intermediate: Used to construct more complex fused-ring heterocompounds. Carbonyl derivatization (e.g., reduction, condensation) can be used to introduce diverse functional groups, thus enabling applications in heterocyclic chemistry research.

Medicinal Chemistry Precursor: Thiazole fused-ring structures are the core backbone of many bioactive molecules. These compounds can be modified (e.g., by introducing amino or alkyl groups at the 2-position) to synthesize drug candidates with antibacterial and anti-inflammatory activities.

Materials Chemistry Applications: As heteroatom-containing fused-ring molecules, they can be used to synthesize optoelectronic functional materials (e.g., fluorescent probes and organic semiconductors). Their rigid structure helps to modulate the optoelectronic properties of these materials.

Safety and Protection

Health Hazards: May be mildly irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory tract. Avoid inhalation of dust or direct contact with skin or mucous membranes.

Precautions: Wear protective gloves, goggles, and a dust mask when handling. Perform experiments in a fume hood to avoid accidental ingestion.

Storage: Store in a sealed container in a cool, dry, dark place away from sources of ignition and strong oxidants.
