TCI C1554 3-Chloropivalic acid is a branched aliphatic carboxylic acid featuring a quaternary neopentyl center together with a beta-positioned chlorine atom. The sterically demanding gem-dimethyl motif is widely used to introduce conformational rigidity and to reduce oxidative metabolism in candidate molecules. Its beta-chloro substituent enables intramolecular cyclization toward oxetanes and lactones, while the carboxyl group can be converted into esters, amides, or reduced derivatives. AMI Scientific supplies this TCI building block in a 25 g pack for organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, and agrochemical research laboratories.
