CAS 1517-68-6
:(S)-1-Phenyl-2-propanol
Description:
(S)-1-Phenyl-2-propanol, with the CAS number 1517-68-6, is an organic compound characterized by its chiral structure, which features a phenyl group attached to a secondary alcohol. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic phenyl group. The presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group imparts some polar characteristics, allowing for hydrogen bonding. (S)-1-Phenyl-2-propanol is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and other fine chemicals. Its chirality makes it of particular interest in asymmetric synthesis, where the specific enantiomer can influence the biological activity of the resulting compounds. Additionally, it can undergo various chemical reactions, including oxidation and esterification, making it a versatile building block in organic chemistry. Safety data indicates that, while it should be handled with care, it is not classified as highly hazardous under standard conditions.

CAS:<p>(S)-1-Phenyl-2-propanol is a chiral, enantiopure alcohol that is used as a substrate for the preparation of various drugs. It can be prepared by the reduction of (R)-1-phenyl-2-propanol with sodium borohydride. To obtain the desired product, high substrate concentrations are required. Molecular modeling and bioreactor studies have shown that this process can also be carried out in cells. Subtilis sps. were found to be suitable for this process due to their ability to synthesize (S)-1-phenyl-2-propanol from 6-phosphate and l-tert-leucine in a stepwise manner. The use of subtilis sps. may reduce the cost and time needed for production of (S)-1-phenyl-2-propanol because it does not require expensive starting materials or purification steps.END>></p>Formula:C9H12OPurity:Min. 95%Color and Shape:Clear LiquidMolecular weight:136.19 g/mol
