(3S,6S)-3,6-Octanediol

Description:
(3S,6S)-3,6-Octanediol is a chiral organic compound characterized by the presence of two hydroxyl (-OH) groups located at the 3rd and 6th carbon positions of an octane chain. This compound is a diol, which means it contains two alcohol functional groups, contributing to its hydrophilic properties. The stereochemistry indicated by the (3S,6S) notation suggests that both hydroxyl-bearing carbons are in the S configuration, which can influence the compound's reactivity and interactions with biological systems. (3S,6S)-3,6-Octanediol is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and is soluble in water due to its hydroxyl groups. It is used in various applications, including as a potential intermediate in organic synthesis and in the formulation of cosmetic and personal care products. Its unique structure may also impart specific properties that can be exploited in the development of pharmaceuticals or as a building block in polymer chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
