Product Details

4,4-Dimethyl-2,6-piperidinedione (CAS 1123-40-6), also known as 4,4-dimethylglutarimide or 3,3-dimethylglutarimide, is a cyclic imide of the geminal-dimethyl glutarimide chemical class. This compound is a versatile pharmaceutical building block for making drugs that modulate the CRBN (cereblon) E3 ligase (like lenalidomide analogues), retinoid receptor ligands (like palovarotene-type RARγ agonists), and other CNS-active compounds. 


ApiSyn offers 4,4-Dimethyl-2,6-piperidinedione (CAS 1123-40-6) as a pharmaceutical-grade building block and impurity reference standard for CELMoD and Retinoid API synthesis applications.
