CAS 111058-32-3

Methyl (2R)-2-oxiranecarboxylate

Description:

Methyl (2R)-2-oxiranecarboxylate, with the CAS number 111058-32-3, is an organic compound characterized by its epoxide functional group, which is a three-membered cyclic ether. This compound features a carboxylate ester functional group, contributing to its reactivity and potential applications in organic synthesis. The presence of the methyl group enhances its volatility and solubility in organic solvents. As a chiral molecule, it exhibits stereoisomerism, with the (2R) configuration indicating a specific spatial arrangement of its atoms, which can influence its biological activity and interactions. Methyl (2R)-2-oxiranecarboxylate is typically used in the synthesis of various chemical intermediates and may serve as a building block in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Its reactivity is primarily attributed to the strained epoxide ring, making it a useful reagent in nucleophilic ring-opening reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
