Methyl 5-oxohexanoate is a versatile intermediate widely utilized in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and specialty organic compounds. Its dual-functional structure (retaining a reactive ketone and a protected ester group) enables regioselective condensations, notably in the synthesis of Indomethacin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). As an experienced specialty chemical manufacturer in India, Kalpasthana ensures highly controlled process parameters to eliminate side-chain impurities, offering reliable bulk manufacturing and packaging options.
Manufacturing Importance: Sourced directly from our state-of-the-art facility in Bidar District, Karnataka. Every batch is manufactured under strict quality controlled guidelines, ensuring predictable synthesis yields and batch-to-batch consistency.

The ester is a highly versatile intermediate utilized in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients, notably the non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) Indomethacin. Its dual functionality allows for selective condensations, cyclizations, and preparation of pyridazinone cardiovascular agents, agrochemicals, and fragrance molecules.
In pharmaceutical manufacturing, this keto-ester acts as a versatile building block for the synthesis of nitrogen-containing heterocycles. Sourcing a high-purity product is essential, as the differential reactivity of the ketone and ester carbonyls allows for regioselective reactions that are critical in forming key structural links for indomethacin derivatives.
Critical starting material that reacts with 4-methoxyphenylhydrazine to form the indole core of Indomethacin.
Excellent bifunctional reactivity combining a keto group and an ester for synthesizing pyrrole, pyridazine, and furan rings.
Used to synthesize delta-lactones, cyclic fragrance compounds, and select crop protection herbicides.
For Methyl 5-oxohexanoate, quality is our foundational pillar. We ensure high-purity keto-ester footprints through strict process controls, moisture-monitored crystallization, and vacuum fractional distillation. Our facility specifically checks reaction temperatures to minimize ester hydrolysis and condensation side products, guaranteeing batch consistency for heterocyclic ring synthesis.
Every shipment is backed by in-house GC-FID purity verification (maintaining assay purity >=98.0%), low acidity checks, and standard COA profiles to support client B2B audits and regulatory compliance.
Manufactured under strict GMP-compliant standard operating procedures.
In-house analytical testing ensuring HPLC purity >=99.0% for every batch.
Complete B2B regulatory paperwork, technical dossiers, and audit support.

Methyl 5-oxohexanoate is a keto-ester. It is synthesized via the esterification of 5-oxohexanoic acid with methanol, or by the oxidation of cyclohexanone derivatives under catalytic conditions. It is a clear liquid with high chemical stability.
The compound serves as an important intermediate in the synthesis of fine chemicals and pharmaceutical compounds. Its dual functionality (ester and ketone groups) allows for diverse chemical reactions, including condensation and alkylation.
We supply Methyl 5-oxohexanoate with a purity of >=98.0% by GC. Complete batch analysis is provided to sourcing agents.
It is stored in cool, well-ventilated areas in sealed steel containers to prevent moisture absorption.
Sourcing professionals are provided with complete safety data sheets (SDS) and quality assurance guidelines for safe bulk handling.
HPLC purity verified at >=99.0% with minimal related substances.
Continuous commercial-scale volume manufacturing capacity.
Complete analytical profiles, GC profiles, MSDS, and COA dossiers.
Equipped with a 50 kL combined reactor volume in Karnataka.
Kalpasthana Life Care Products, Humnabad, Bidar District, Karnataka, India - 585330
GMP-compliant state-of-the-art facility, rigorous GC and analytical purity testing.
Standard commercial HDPE drums or customized B2B bottles; custom packaging available.
Commercial Sourcing & Synonyms: Sourcing under CAS No. 13984-50-4 from an established custom chemical manufacturer ensures standard specifications. This keto-ester is a versatile organic synthesis building block used in pharmaceutical intermediates synthesis at Kalpasthana.
Its main advantage lies in its orthogonal functional groups. The ketone can be reduced, alkylated, or condensed while keeping the ester group intact (or vice-versa), providing a flexible pathway for synthesizing complex organic compounds.
It should be stored in a cool, well-ventilated area in tightly closed original containers. It is stable under standard transport conditions. MSDS and technical sheets are supplied with every order.
It is available in standard 200 kg steel/HDPE drums, as well as smaller 25 kg carboys. We can customize packaging to include nitrogen blanketing to ensure long-term stability and high assay values during shipping and warehousing.
