4-Amino-3-hydroxy-benzonitrile delivers a key value to research and industrial markets. The chemical formula C7H6N2O points to its aromatic ring, nitrile, amino, and hydroxy groups—properties that earn it a strong role in organic synthesis, advanced materials, and pharma intermediates. Key identifiers include HS Code 2926909090, CAS 4887-42-7, molecular weight 134.14 g/mol, and a density around 1.26 g/cm³. As a powder, it ranges from light brown to off-white, melting at 168-172°C. Laboratories watch for a faint aromatic odor, a moderate water solubility, and safe material handling requirements.
Demand for 4-amino-3-hydroxy-benzonitrile keeps rising in pigment, dye, and pharmaceutical synthesis. I’ve watched R&D shift towards more selective and sustainable synthetic routes, where this intermediate proves irreplaceable. Over two years, sourcing teams flagged its purity grades and batch consistency, sometimes based on MSDS for safe lab use, other times for material compliance in industrial scale. Specialty manufacturers in China offer products certified under ISO, SGS, REACH, and Halal/Kosher standards for extra confidence.
Factories in Zhejiang, Jiangsu, and Shandong have developed scalable production to meet global demand. Competitive China-supply on CIF or FOB terms makes benchmarking critical. International buyers examine quotes based on MOQ (minimum order quantity)—often starting as low as 1kg up to tons for large batches. Price varies by purity, and I‘ve seen factory-direct rates save 10-18% over regional distributors. OEM and private label options commonly help brands fit niche applications, from pharma to advanced materials. Reliable suppliers gladly provide MSDS, SDS, TDS, or custom spec sheets upon inquiry.
Managing raw material use pushes many to request up-to-date certification: REACH registration, ISO 9001, SGS, Halal or Kosher—a necessity for compliance in regulated industries. Some clients ask for free samples to test new formulations, especially where hazardous material classification raises shipping or storage hurdles. I‘ve navigated first-hand the need for OEM flexibility; branded allocations mean specific molecular property profiles and documentation per lot.
Handling 4-amino-3-hydroxy-benzonitrile brings real safety concerns. Its hazardous or harmful classification requires labeled packaging, full MSDS visibility, and raw materials traceability. On factory visits, I always inspect storage—ventilated areas, spill containment, PPE easily available for workers. Most reputable Chinese manufacturers tightly control trace elements and impurity profiles, so users minimize risk downstream. Transport by sea or air requires clear documentation and policy alignment with importing country rules and certifications.
From my interactions, reliable follow-up support after purchase leaves a strong impression. Quick response to specification questions, timely shipment via CIF/FOB, and after-sales technical service keep partnerships solid. Chinese suppliers adapt fast, often improving product traceability and updating SDS or TDS data packs as standards change. News about regulatory updates or raw material pricing gets shared quickly, letting buyers adjust strategies before issues hit production. More suppliers seek feedback to improve OEM and certification offerings, raising the global bar for safe, certified chemical sourcing.
