CYCLOHEXANE (CAS NO:110-82-7)

Cyclohexane is a colorless, flammable liquid with a distinctive, sweet odor. It is widely used as a solvent and intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals. It serves as a precursor for synthesizing adipic acid and caprolactam, essential components in the manufacturing of nylon. Cyclohexane is a nonpolar, flammable liquid that belongs to the group of cycloalkanes. Cyclohexane can be used as a pharmaceutical reference standard for residual solvent analysis in pharmaceutical formulations and raw materials by gas chromatography. Suitable for use in several analytical applications including but not limited to pharma release testing, pharma method development for qualitative and quantitative analyses, food and beverage quality control testing, and other calibration requirements.

Chemical Properties & Specifications

Applications of CYCLOHEXANE

Pharmaceutical Intermediates

Used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and intermediates.

Solvent for Reactions

Used in organic synthesis to dissolve non-polar substances and facilitate reactions. Ideal for extraction and recrystallization processes during drug development.

Excipient in Drug Formulations

Occasionally used in the formulation of ointments and creams to improve consistency and stability (though this use is more limited).

Intermediate for Synthesis

Serves as a starting material in the production of pharmaceutical intermediates such as adipic acid and caprolactam, both of which are involved in synthesizing polymers used in pharmaceutical applications.

Industrial Solvent

Applied in coatings, adhesives, and sealant formulations.

Chemical Synthesis

Serves as a precursor in producing adipic acid and caprolactam for nylon production.

Laboratory Solvent

Utilized as a standard solvent for laboratory processes.
