Cinchonine

Cinchonine (CAS 118-10-5 ) is a natural cinchona bark alkaloid used across pharmaceutical, biotechnology, and personal care sectors. Commercially recognized as D-Cinchonine, it functions primarily as a chiral resolving agent.

It serves as a biochemical tool compound in synthesis and research workflows. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, it resolves racemic mixtures to isolate enantiomerically pure active ingredients for production.

This is a critical step in API production where chiral purity directly affects regulatory approval. Biotechnology researchers use it as a reference standard and chiral selector in chromatographic method development.

Personal care formulators incorporate it into preservation systems where alkaloid-based antimicrobial activity supports product stability. It also serves research applications in asymmetric catalysis for development.

Its quinuclidine-quinoline scaffold is used to develop organocatalyst systems. The material is supplied as a white to off-white crystalline powder available in reagent-grade and high-purity specifications.

It is suited to pharmaceutical and analytical applications, with select suppliers offering material compliant with reference standard requirements. Packaging ranges from small research quantities to bulk orders.

Industrial-scale chiral resolution processes utilize this compound for its reliable performance. The product meets rigorous industry expectations for consistency and chemical stability in various environments.
