Trityl Chloride Market

COVID-19 Impact on Trityl Chloride Market

• The COVID-19 outbreak is hampering the demand for trityl chloride in many applications. Governments of various countries across the globe have enforced lockdown measures to curb the spread of the coronavirus. This has resulted in slowdown and even halt in manufacturing operations, thus hampering the demand for trityl chloride.
• Key players operating in the trityl chloride market are primarily tier I and tier II manufacturers and suppliers. Manufacture and supply chain facilities of these players are spread across various countries in Asia Pacific, Europe, North America, Latin America, and Middle East & Africa. Many of these players have halted their production output over the last few months due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The pandemic has negatively influenced the demand and supply chain of trityl chloride.
• The COVID-19 outbreak has directly affected the production and demand for trityl chloride. Industrial shutdown caused by the COVID-19 pandemic has created disruption in the supply chain. Disruption in supply of raw materials is projected to hamper full-scale operations of companies operating in the market.

Key Drivers of Trityl Chloride Market

• Rise in demand for trityl chloride in the pharmaceuticals industry due to its chemical functionality is a significant factor projected to fuel the global trityl chloride market during the forecast period.

Trityl Chloride: Market Introduction

• Trityl chloride is also known as chlorotriphenylmethane, triphenylchloromethane, or triphenylmethyl chloride
• Trityl chloride is an alkyl halide commonly used as a protecting agent or position blocking agent in many organic chemical reactions to introduce the trityl protecting group. The triphenylmethyl group (trityl, Tr) and its congeners are frequently used in synthetic organic chemistry for protecting alcohols, thiols, and amines. Steric requirements make trityl particularly useful in carbohydrate chemistry, where a selective protection of primary alcohol(s) functionality is needed.
• Trityl chloride is used to manufacture APIs such as Losartan potassium, Cefotaxime, Ceftazidime, Indeloxacine, Remoxipride, and Zidovudine
• Trityl chloride is used in the preparation of S-trityl-L-cysteine (STLC), a tight binding inhibitor of Eg5 that prevents mitotic progression. S-trityl-L-cysteine (STLC) exhibits anticancer and potential chemotherapeutic activities in chronic myelogenous leukemia.
