CAS 15448-47-2

(+)-Propylene oxide

Description:

(+)-Propylene oxide, with the CAS number 15448-47-2, is a colorless, flammable liquid characterized by its distinctive ether-like odor. It is a cyclic ether and an epoxide, which means it contains a three-membered ring structure consisting of two carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. This compound is known for its reactivity, particularly in undergoing ring-opening reactions, making it valuable in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals, including polyether polyols used in polyurethane manufacturing. (+)-Propylene oxide is also notable for its chiral nature, existing as a single enantiomer, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in biological systems. It has a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in water and organic solvents, which enhances its utility in various applications. Safety considerations are important, as it is classified as a hazardous substance due to its flammability and potential health effects upon exposure. Overall, (+)-propylene oxide is a significant compound in both industrial and research contexts.
