Description:(R)-1-(2-chlorophenyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 120466-66-2, is a chiral organic compound characterized by the presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a carbon atom that is also bonded to a 2-chlorophenyl group. This compound exhibits stereoisomerism due to the presence of a chiral center, which contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties. Typically, it appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and specific conditions. The presence of the chlorine atom in the phenyl ring can influence its reactivity and solubility in various solvents, often making it more polar than its non-chlorinated counterparts. This compound may be utilized in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its potential biological activity. Its specific interactions and reactivity can be further explored through methods such as spectroscopy and chromatography, which help in understanding its behavior in different chemical environments.
