1-Hexyne is a colorless, flammable alkyne with a faint ether-like odor, primarily used as a building block in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals for creating complex molecular structures. It serves as a key intermediate in the production of flavors and specialty chemicals due to its reactive triple bond, and is widely used as a terminal alkyne in Sonogashira couplings and copper-catalyzed azide-alkyne cycloadditions. This chemical has a CAS number of 693-02-7, a molecular formula of C6H10, and a molecular weight of 82.14 g/mol. It must be stored at ambient temperatures in a well-ventilated area, away from ignition sources, with a signal word of Danger indicating high hazard potential. Molekula supplies 1-Hexyne from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
