(4R)-4-Methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one

Description:
(4R)-4-Methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one, with the CAS number 16606-55-6, is a cyclic organic compound characterized by its dioxolane structure, which features a five-membered ring containing two oxygen atoms and a carbonyl group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its specific form and purity. It exhibits a relatively low boiling point and is soluble in polar organic solvents, making it useful in various chemical applications. The presence of the methyl group at the 4-position contributes to its stereochemistry and can influence its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. As a lactone, it can participate in ring-opening reactions and is often utilized in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly in the synthesis of more complex molecules. Its unique structure and properties make it a valuable intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
