Description
Methylboronic Acid (CAS No. 13061-96-6) is a versatile organoboron compound with the molecular formula CH5BO2. This white to off-white crystalline solid is highly soluble in water and polar organic solvents, making it an essential reagent in synthetic chemistry and pharmaceutical research. Methylboronic acid serves as a key intermediate in Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling reactions, enabling the formation of carbon-carbon bonds in complex organic synthesis. Its stability and reactivity under mild conditions make it ideal for constructing aryl-methyl and heteroaryl-methyl frameworks. Packaged under inert conditions to ensure purity and longevity, our high-grade Methylboronic Acid is rigorously tested via HPLC, NMR, and elemental analysis to meet the stringent demands of research and industrial applications. Available in quantities ranging from grams to kilograms, it is suitable for catalysis, medicinal chemistry, and material science.
