(S)-3-BENZYLOXY-2-HYDROXY-PROPIONIC ACID METHYL ESTER

Description:
(S)-3-Benzyloxy-2-hydroxy-propionic acid methyl ester, with the CAS number 127744-28-9, is an organic compound characterized by its chiral structure, which includes a benzyloxy group and a hydroxyl group on a propionic acid backbone. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and dichloromethane, but its solubility in water is limited due to its hydrophobic benzyloxy moiety. The presence of both the hydroxyl and ester functional groups suggests that it may participate in hydrogen bonding and undergo hydrolysis under certain conditions. This compound is of interest in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals, due to its potential as an intermediate in the synthesis of biologically active molecules. Its chiral nature also makes it relevant in studies of stereochemistry and enantioselective reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
