1,3-Butanediol,2-amino-, (2R,3S)-rel-

Description:

1,3-Butanediol, 2-amino-, (2R,3S)-rel- is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both hydroxyl (-OH) and amino (-NH2) functional groups, making it a diol and an amine. This compound features a four-carbon chain with two hydroxyl groups located at the first and third carbon positions, and an amino group attached to the second carbon. The specific stereochemistry indicated by (2R,3S) denotes the spatial arrangement of the substituents around the chiral centers at the second and third carbons, which can influence its biological activity and interactions. It is typically a colorless, viscous liquid at room temperature and is soluble in water due to its polar functional groups. This compound may have applications in pharmaceuticals, as a building block in organic synthesis, or in the development of various chemical products. Its properties, such as melting point, boiling point, and reactivity, can vary based on the specific conditions and the presence of other substances.
