1-(2-Methoxyethyl)-5-oxopyrrolidine-3-carboxylic acid

It is used principally as a building block and intermediate in chemical synthesis and medicinal-chemistry research. The 5-oxopyrrolidine (gamma-lactam) ring, the 3-carboxylic acid and the N-(2-methoxyethyl) group give a bifunctional, polar scaffold that can be coupled, esterified or further functionalised to build larger molecules.

The CAS number is 407634-05-3. The molecular formula is C8H13NO4 (Hill notation) with a molecular weight of 187.19 g/mol.

It is offered as a research/technical-grade building block for laboratory and synthetic use. We do not represent it as USP, BP or EP pharmacopoeial grade. A current specification and certificate of analysis, including the assay for the available lot, are provided on request so you can confirm suitability for your application.

Handle it as a research chemical using good laboratory practice: work in a well-ventilated area, wear suitable gloves, eye protection and a lab coat, avoid dust, contact and ingestion, and keep it tightly closed, dry and away from incompatible materials. No regulated GHS classification is supplied with our data; always follow the lot-specific safety data sheet, which is supplied with each shipment.

It is packed in appropriately labelled laboratory and bulk containers sized to the order, from gram to kilogram quantities, with tamper-evident closures. As a specialist exporter since 1998, Tech Serve Solutions arranges compliant international documentation and despatch, accompanied by a certificate of analysis and safety data sheet.
