(S)-(-)-2-Bromo-alpha-methylbenzyl alcohol

CAS: 114446-55-8

2-Bromo-alpha-methylbenzyl alcohol is a chiral molecule that has two enantiomers, which are mirror images of each other. The (S)-(+)-enantiomer is the active form and the (R)-(-)-enantiomer has no biological activity. 2-Bromo-alpha-methylbenzyl alcohol can be hydrogenated to form (+) -2-bromo-alpha-methylbenzaldehyde, which is an allylic compound with a conjugate diastereomeric relationship to it. This means that the two enantiomers have different chemical properties because they are structurally related in a way that does not allow for rotation about a single bond. The (S)-(+)-enantiomer of 2-bromo-alpha-methylbenzyl alcohol exhibits high affinity for phosphorus ligands, while the (R)-(-)-enantiomer has no affinity.
