Ethyl (2S)-2-oxiraneacetate

Description:
Ethyl (2S)-2-oxiraneacetate, also known as ethyl 2-oxiraneacetate, is an organic compound characterized by its epoxide functional group, which is a three-membered cyclic ether. This compound features an ethyl ester group attached to a chiral carbon, contributing to its stereochemistry. The presence of the oxirane ring imparts unique reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Ethyl (2S)-2-oxiraneacetate is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It 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 ring. The compound's reactivity allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, including ring-opening reactions and nucleophilic substitutions. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with many organic compounds, it may pose health hazards if not managed properly.
