Chemistry & industry
Applications
UsesLabelled α-Ergocryptine. α-Ergocryptine is an ergopeptine and one of the ergot alkaloids. An impurity of 2-Bromo-α-Ergocryptine Mesylate (B682600).
Uses5-Chlorovaleric acid was used to derivatize L-hydroxyproline for the synthesis of haptens HP1 and HP2. These haptens were used in the preparation of antibodies against L-hydroxyproline.
Preparation methods
Preparation5-Chlorovaleric acid is obtained by reacting 1,4-dichlorobutane with potassium cyanide or sodium hydride using a phase transfer catalysis method to produce 5-chlorovalerate, which is then hydrolyzed in an acidic aqueous solution.
