As cold as he was to his family, his sister being the exception, o the staff Tobias has made the conscious choice to be warmer. With his status he was used to getting respect by default but his times being more financially limited and nobody caring or knowing his title while he was away taught him to notice the staff more and to give them respect even if he did not know them.

Ordering two bowls of strawberry he carried them over to a table outside so they could sit in the sun. His skin still had a tan from his travels, and he enjoyed sitting under the warm rays. “In truth I did not have it much while in Naples. It was a rare treat I could scarcely afford but in the few times I did, it was like nothing you’d have ever tasted. I wish I’d have been able to bring Emily back something from there, but circumstances could not be prevented.” There was a smile, but it didn’t quite reach his eyes.

esther was privy to some information that ran through the thorpe house. in many ways she was a ghost in the manor- not quite family, not quite a servant. instead, she laid in a strange sort of purgatory. however, she loved her job and the thorpe family had been so kind to her. she could only hope that mister tobias, was the same.

esther has always to travel, to see the world. she once had plans with ethan, but they withered away with him. "it sounds delightful. though, i am pretty partial to our ice cream here." she nodded her head and smiled. "thank you, sir. i think...i think i'll have the strawberry."

M.LIST | PROLOGUE | NEXT

The first of the new customers comes in on a slow Tuesday afternoon.

It’s just you and your two assistants in the shop. They’re restocking some of the bottles on the shelves and you’re in the lab as per usual, this time reformulating an old scent that didn’t sell well on its maiden voyage. You distantly hear the front door chime ring and the voices of your two assistants welcoming them.

You stare down at the flask in front of you on the table and the array of raw materials scattered around it. Eh, might as well get up and help out. You haven’t made any progress in the past half hour either. 

With a sigh, you get up and unlock the door separating your lab from the store. Your usual greeting spills from your lips like you’re on autopilot.

“Welcome, dear customer. How can I be of assistance today?”

You trip over your words a little bit at the end as you take this customer’s appearance. On first impression, it’s a bit gaudy- like a peacock trying to impress. An expensive leather coat with fur like he’s trying to flaunt his wealth and a spade cutout right in the middle of the chest like he’s trying to draw attention to it. His face is also obscured by the brim of his hat and his pink sunglasses so you sadly can’t get a glimpse of his appearance. You haven’t seen him before- you’d remember a getup like that for sure. 

“Nothing in particular. Just doing some window shopping.”

His voice is rich and syrupy like honey and it pulls you in. You don’t miss how your two shop assistants are eyeing him and you send them a look over your shoulder. They giggle under their breaths and scurry away to busy themselves around the shop. 

He picks up a black tester bottle and sprays it a couple times around his pulse points before walking around the store again. It’s pricey, but it’s a popular perfume among young men, especially those that like to party from your observations. Not surprising, considering how creamy, spicy, and decadent it smells. It’s a crowd-pleaser. 

One of your assistants, Aika, passes by with a box of perfume bottles that you received in an earlier shipment. She pauses and gives you a mischievous look. 

“He’s hot,” she whispers as he passes by. “Looks like he’s interested in you too. I see him eyeing you up. Don’t pretend like you haven’t either.”

You merely glare at her, which she laughs at. He gives you a knowing look and a wink, further proving her point. You pointedly ignore it. 

He seems happy with how the scent reacts with his skin chemistry and the dry down because he walks back to grab a bottle before setting it down by the register. You pause what you’re doing in the meantime to ring him up. 

He hands his card over without a second thought. Black card, you note as you swipe it. It’s got some weight to it too. You catch a glimpse of the name on the card and the IPC logo in the corner before handing it back to him. Aventurine, of the IPC’s Strategic Investment Department. Now you have a name and affiliation to go with the face as well. 

When you hand his card back, his gloved fingers ghost over your hand for a second longer than necessary. The warmth of his hand seeps through the thin leather and you have to force yourself to ignore it and bid him goodbye. 

Another one of your shop assistants watches him go as well.

“You know, he didn’t seem like he particularly loved that perfume. Maybe he bought it just to get close to you?”

“Yeri…”

“Just saying. Don’t act like you didn’t notice it too.”

After that, he doesn’t leave you alone. You quickly learn that he’s an IPC executive, which takes you by surprise with how he’s attached to your hip at any given time. He’s still busy with work, but he spends a lot more time at your store than you’d expect- at least a visit or two every week. He always leaves with something as well. At this rate he’s going to have a bottle of every perfume in your store…

“He’s more like a… how do I put it? He’s more like a… clingy stray cat that you took pity on one day and it wouldn’t leave your side after that,” you complained to your shop assistants one day during lunch. Aika snorts and steals a bite of your food. 

“No harm in playing along with him. He’s rich, after all. Savor this opportunity.”

He also likes to flirt with you and hog up all your free time. He’ll walk in with a loud declaration of “(Name)! I’m back!” and wrap his arms around your shoulders and waist the moment he sees you. Over time, you’ve gotten used to it and you’ll do business as usual with a grown man clinging to you like some house cat. 

(Your shop assistants still tease you relentlessly though.)

In return, you turn him into your unofficial guinea pig to test your upcoming perfumes on. He doesn’t mind. In fact, he seems to take pride in it. 

You gently grab his wrist and spray something onto the exposed skin. He doesn’t resist- just lets you do your thing.

“Tell me your thoughts.”

“My friend, you already know what I’m going to say. Everything and anything you create is bound to sell out. When it comes to storytelling, your nose is unmatched.”

“Give me real constructive criticism, Aventurine. Stop trying to butter me up.”

“I’m being honest here!”

With the frequency of his visits, the distance between you quickly closes. He insists you refer to him by his name without any prefixes. You don’t particularly care what he refers to you by, but you’ll frequently catch him on the phone talking about “his beloved perfumer”. 

One day when there are no customers in the shop, he comes in. There’s no loud proclamation of your name or the now-familiar sound of expensive leather shoes against the floor as he searches for you. He looks a little different as well. His hat is gone, as well as his pink sunglasses, letting you see his face unobstructed for the first time.

His eyes. They’re the first thing to draw you in. They’re a hypnotizing shade of magenta and blue that you’ve never seen before. 

What pretty eyes, you think. But you avert your gaze in case he catches you staring. Strangely enough, he doesn’t meet your gaze. He takes a particular interest in the view outside the window even though he’s seen it a million times already. 

You hand him a faceted golden bottle. The turquoise liquid inside swirls slightly as he examines it. A thin turquoise band runs around the circumference of the bottle and he hesitates. It looks a little familiar, for some reason…

“This is a new scent I created recently. Smell it and tell me your thoughts.”

He sprays it on his wrists before tentatively taking a whiff. Instantly, the scent of bergamot and the sea hits him.

No, the smell of home hits him. There’s a faint citrusy smell that smells vaguely familiar to a hardy fruit that bloomed on the scraggly trees during the spring and the earthy scent of sand hits him like a punch to the gut. He can still recall the sensation of the sand stinging his eyes from the harsh solar winds and how despite his sister’s best efforts, he could never fully get it out of his clothes and hair. It stuck to him like a second skin. 

Sometimes, he finds himself wishing that he could’ve filled a bottle with sand and brought it with him so he’d always carry part of home, especially on those lonely nights. 

Then comes the rain.

He can hear the sound of the rain hitting the rooftop of the tent he called home as a child where he’d celebrate a few lonesome birthdays, followed by the stench of iron and rot and the sickening squelch of his footsteps in the drenched sand as he flees, leaving everything he’s known and loved behind. 

For some reason, he can taste the saltiness of the sea as well. But on a planet as desolate and barren as Sigonia-IV, there are no bodies of water. Is it the ocean or rather his tears instead?

He rubs his wrists together to make the top notes and memories dissipate faster. They fade to something richer and deeper, more opulent and decadent. More fitting for who he is now. The spicy scent of expensive alcohol is both familiar and sickening. 

There’s a new syrupy sweet scent that emerges that meshes so well with the alcohol he almost doesn’t realize it’s there until he takes a second whiff. His eyes widen and he almost chokes on it.

Honey. It’s the sugary sweet scent of honey. 

Even now, he still can’t escape his past.

He picks up on a resinous scent and if the honey made him feel nauseous, then the scent of amber makes him sick to his stomach. All for the Amber Lord. That damned phrase reminds him that he still isn’t free, imprisoned by gold and jewels instead of chains and shackles now. 

The decadence and richness of the top notes have died down and it now smells warm and intimate, like a hug from a loved one. He thinks of his sister and the long nights he’d spent cuddled into her side to stave off the extreme cold. He can’t remember what her voice sounds like anymore, or what she smelled like, or how she even looked. But he remembers how safe, how loved, he felt in her embrace. 

He hates every aspect of the scent. It’s too close for comfort. (Did you enlist the help of a Memokeeper for this?)

But he loves it at the same time. He’s heard the stories of how your perfumes are stories in their own rights, shifting from one scent to another to evoke foreign yet familiar emotions in the hearts of their wearers. He’s enjoyed all your perfumes so far, but hasn’t found something that really resonated with him up until now. Clearly, he’s underestimated your nose.

You fidget a bit, a little unnerved at his silence. He always has something to say. For him to be silent is so uncharacteristic. 

“So… how is it?”

He continues to stay silent. His chest feels tight and his left hand has subconsciously clenched into a fist behind his back. 

“I’ll take your entire stock.”

The words make it past the lump in his throat and he forces a smile. 

You freeze.

“Sorry?”

“You heard me. I’ll take your entire stock.”

“... It’s still under development though…”

“I don’t care. Just don’t release it to the general public. How much per bottle?”

“The same as the rest of them. 112,000 credits for the full size.” 

To your surprise, he hands his card over without a second word. After a moment of hesitation, you swipe it. The little ding tells you the transaction went through. Most, if not all, of your customers are wealthy. They have to be in order to afford your perfumes. But the top one percent of the one percent… they really are in a different realm. 

“You do subscription services, right?”

Dumbfounded, all you can do is nod. He lets out a satisfied hum.

“Perfect. Sign me up for it.”

Sensing your shock, Yeri graciously takes over for you while you head to the back to process what just happened. This scent was just you messing around! If you did end up selling it, it would’ve only been in limited quantities because of how… unique it smells. Not as unique compared to some of your wares, but niche enough to separate it from your more palatable scents. 

Yet here you are with a man that has already paid for and demanded several bottles… Better get to work then. 

Your shop assistants have already finished processing the transaction and Aventurine is standing outside the store now. He gingerly lifts the bottle out from its packaging and sprays it a few times onto his pulse points. He knows he’s being greedy by hoarding all the bottles and not letting anyone else have it, but he doesn’t care. The delusional side of him thinks there’s no way this fragrance WASN’T crafted for him specifically. The notes, the bottle design, everything. 

Fabric holds scent longer than skin does. His mind drifts to the old rag that was his father’s, safely stored away.

He won’t be able to return home for a long while. But this perfume must be what it’ll feel like when that day finally comes and his time runs out.

[ PERSONAL . ]

01. how  many  languages  does  your  character  speak  ? too many to count, she's picked up the languages of everywhere she's been to. her native language is iranian persian (or fārsi) but she knows countless others, including english, other arabic languages, french & spanish, mandarin & russian.

02. how  does  your  character  express  anger  ? ester isn't particularly acquainted with personal intimacy enough that she's all too familiar with herself when angry. but when she's angry, it tends to be internalised and will probably register more as distress and upset. she'll cry and struggle to express her emotions in any verbal way.

03. what  is  your  character's  home  like  ? ester lives in a small studio apartment that you could comfortably describe as maximalist. she loves ornate & vintage patterned furniture, a variety of colours & the more, the merrier is her décor mantra. she also loves repurposed things as furniture, so expect to see milk crates used as shelving or repainted junk in general. also, her apartment is full to the brim with decayed flowers.

04. how  does  your  character  handle  conflict  ? quietly, by moving on or running away or avoiding it altogether. similarly to anger, her detachment from humanity in general means that she feels as though she doesn't have to handle conflict or negative emotions at all.

05. how  does  your  character  display  affection  ? ester loves to curate, scrapbook and observe life as it happens around her, and this attitude extends to the affection she shows other people too. her affection comes in the form of her curious ear and ability to dedicate time to other people.

[ SUPERNATURAL . ]

01. when  did  you  character  first  notice  their  powers  /  differences  ? it's hard to pinpoint it. for the first thirteen years of her life, an older reaper had taken her under her wing (not as a mother, but a mentor). this reaper taught ester from the beginning that she was different, taught her the extent of her reaper abilities & they never truly lived among humanity.

02. how  does  your  character  feel  about  their  abilities  /  species  ? she likes them. a lot. ester considers it a great honour to observe people's deaths, treating it as sacred and divine. she finds death itself to be beautiful & finds her species' purpose of observing and aiding it to be hugely important.

03. what stereotypical traits of their species does your character show ? are there any ways in which they subvert them ? her obsession with death is absolutely stereotypical, but where she breaks the stereotype is in the fact that it manifests in an appreciation of life too, of the cycle in between the two & of fleeting beauty & what it decays into, of the remains of a culture in its art & writings.

04. what's  your  muse's  favourite  ability  /  the  one  they  use  the  most ?  why ? she uses invisibility the most because outside of portum, she rarely presents herself to humans. but she loves to dream walk and experience fragments of a person through their dreams.

05. what  is  your  character's  reason  for  being  guided  to  portum ? to learn that there's more to life than death. ester is guided by her intuition, which is why she thinks she's here, but the truth is that it's time for her to forge something more for herself than her years of nomadic observation & preservation.

CAS NO. 35180-01-9 MANUFACTURERS IN INDIA

Understanding Chloromethyl Isopropyl Carbonate (CAS No. 35180-01-9): A Key Intermediate in Pharmaceutical Synthesis

The chemical industry is the cornerstone of modern science and technology, supplying essential compounds for industries ranging from agriculture to electronics. One niche but critical segment of this industry is the manufacturing of pharmaceutical intermediates—chemical compounds used in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs). One such intermediate that plays a pivotal role in antiviral drug synthesis is Chloromethyl Isopropyl Carbonate, identified by its Chemical Abstracts Service (CAS) number: 35180-01-9.

What is Chloromethyl Isopropyl Carbonate?

Chloromethyl Isopropyl Carbonate (CMIC) is an organic compound that exists as a colorless to pale yellow liquid. It belongs to the family of chloroformates, a group of chemicals often used in organic synthesis due to their reactivity with amines, alcohols, and acids. CMIC, in particular, is prized for its role as a reagent and intermediate in the pharmaceutical sector.

Its molecular formula is C5H9ClO3, and it has a molar mass of approximately 152.58 g/mol. This unique composition imparts specific reactivity that is highly valuable in drug synthesis.

Key Applications

The primary application of Chloromethyl Isopropyl Carbonate lies in its use as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of Tenofovir, a crucial component in antiretroviral therapy (ART). Tenofovir is used in the treatment of HIV/AIDS and Hepatitis B, diseases that affect millions worldwide. In the synthetic route for Tenofovir, CMIC is involved in the preparation of Tenofovir disoproxil fumarate (TDF), a prodrug that enhances the bioavailability of Tenofovir.

Apart from Tenofovir, CMIC may also find use in the synthesis of other nucleotide analogues and advanced pharmaceutical compounds. Because it contains both a reactive carbonate and a chloroalkyl group, it can form ester and ether bonds under controlled conditions, enabling chemists to build complex molecules.

Chemical Properties and Handling

CMIC is a reactive chemical and must be handled with care. It is moisture-sensitive and should be stored under an inert atmosphere such as nitrogen. Prolonged exposure to air and water can result in hydrolysis, which degrades the compound and reduces its effectiveness in synthetic reactions.

Here are a few key properties:

Appearance: Colorless to pale yellow liquid

Boiling Point: Approximately 140–150°C (decomposes)

Solubility: Reacts with water; soluble in common organic solvents like dichloromethane and toluene

Stability: Stable under recommended storage conditions; decomposes on exposure to moisture

Given its reactivity, personal protective equipment (PPE) is essential during handling. This includes gloves, protective eyewear, lab coats, and proper ventilation to avoid inhalation of vapors.

Role in Green Chemistry and Process Optimization

Several process improvements have been made to minimize waste, reduce the use of toxic reagents, and enhance yield. The use of CMIC in pharmaceutical synthesis is now optimized to ensure higher atom economy and better resource utilization.

Continuous flow chemistry and catalysis have also been explored to enhance the efficiency of CMIC-based processes. These advances contribute not only to economic benefits but also to the reduction of environmental footprints in pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Regulatory Considerations

As with all compounds involved in pharmaceutical synthesis, the use and transport of CMIC are subject to stringent regulations. Manufacturers must comply with:

Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP)

REACH (Registration, Evaluation, Authorization, and Restriction of Chemicals) guidelines

Environmental Health and Safety (EHS) standards

Proper documentation, batch traceability, and impurity profiling are essential for CMIC, especially when the final product is intended for human consumption.

Furthermore, CMIC is not an end-product for direct human use, but because it plays a role in life-saving drug synthesis, regulatory bodies often scrutinize the quality and purity of this intermediate. Any impurities or deviations can significantly impact the efficacy or safety of the final drug formulation.

Global Demand and Market Trends

The demand for Chloromethyl Isopropyl Carbonate is directly tied to the production of Tenofovir and similar antiviral agents. With a growing global emphasis on public health and preparedness for viral epidemics, the market for CMIC has seen steady growth. Increased awareness and access to antiretroviral therapy in low- and middle-income countries have driven the need for large-scale, cost-effective production of pharmaceutical intermediates like CMIC.

In regions like Asia—particularly India and China—CMIC is produced in bulk quantities due to the established infrastructure for API and intermediate manufacturing. These countries have positioned themselves as global suppliers, fulfilling the needs of both domestic and international pharmaceutical firms.

Safety and Environmental Impact

While CMIC is a valuable intermediate, its use does carry some environmental and health risks if not managed properly. The compound must be neutralized and disposed of according to local environmental protection guidelines. Effluent treatment plants (ETPs) and scrubber systems are typically used to minimize emissions during manufacturing.

From a workplace safety perspective, training and operational controls are essential to prevent accidental exposure. Due to its potential to irritate the respiratory tract, skin, and eyes, emergency protocols and first-aid measures must be clearly communicated and accessible.

Conclusion

Chloromethyl Isopropyl Carbonate (CAS No. 35180-01-9) may not be a household name, but its role in the pharmaceutical world is significant and indispensable. As a key intermediate in the synthesis of Tenofovir, it plays a silent yet vital role in global health by aiding the production of drugs that fight life-threatening diseases like HIV and Hepatitis B.

The chemical’s reactivity, regulatory importance, and commercial demand underscore the need for high-quality, well-controlled manufacturing processes. With ongoing research into process efficiency and environmental sustainability, the future of CMIC production is poised to support the evolving needs of the pharmaceutical industry—more safely, sustainably, and effectively than ever before.URL: For more information, visit connex pharma : CAS NO. 35180-01-9 MANUFACTURERS IN INDIA
