2-Propanol, 1,1,1-trifluoro-, (2R)-

Description:
2-Propanol, 1,1,1-trifluoro-, (2R)-, also known as (R)-2-trifluoromethyl-2-propanol, is a fluorinated alcohol characterized by the presence of three fluorine atoms attached to the carbon adjacent to the hydroxyl (-OH) group. This compound has a chiral center, making it optically active, with the (2R) designation indicating its specific stereochemistry. It is a colorless liquid with a distinctive odor and is soluble in water due to the polar nature of the hydroxyl group. The trifluoromethyl group enhances its chemical stability and influences its reactivity, making it useful in various applications, including as a solvent and in organic synthesis. Additionally, the presence of fluorine atoms can impart unique properties, such as increased lipophilicity and altered boiling and melting points compared to non-fluorinated analogs. Safety considerations include handling it with care due to potential toxicity and environmental impact, as fluorinated compounds can persist in the environment.
