TCI C0347 Cinchonidine, CAS 485-71-2, is a cinchona alkaloid that has long served as a workhorse reagent in asymmetric synthesis. Its quinoline ring, basic quinuclidine nitrogen, and secondary hydroxyl group at a stereogenic centre allow it to act simultaneously as a chiral base and a hydrogen-bond donor. It is applied as an organocatalyst, as a chiral modifier for heterogeneous hydrogenation catalysts, as a resolving agent for racemic acids, and as a starting material for cinchona-derived phase transfer catalysts and ligands. AMI Scientific offers this TCI product in 25 g and 100 g packs, with lot-specific data available from the manufacturer.
