Ethyl (2R)-2-oxiranecarboxylate

Description:
Ethyl (2R)-2-oxiranecarboxylate, also known as ethyl 2-oxiranecarboxylate, 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. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. The presence of the epoxide ring makes it a versatile intermediate in various chemical reactions, including ring-opening reactions that can lead to the formation of alcohols or other functional groups. Ethyl (2R)-2-oxiranecarboxylate is soluble in organic solvents and may exhibit moderate stability under standard conditions, although it can be sensitive to nucleophiles due to the strained nature of the epoxide. Its applications may extend to the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals, making it a valuable compound in both industrial and research settings. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
