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.

(R)-1,1,1-Trifluoro-2-propanol

CAS: 17628-73-8

(R)-1,1,1-Trifluoro-2-propanol is a biologically active chemical. It is used as an industrial solvent and has been found to be useful in the production of acetone. (R)-1,1,1-Trifluoro-2-propanol is an inhibitor of the enzyme carbonyl reductase, which catalyzes the reduction of ketones to alcohols. This chemical also inhibits dehydrogenase enzymes that catalyze reactions involving oxidation or reduction of a single substrate molecule. (R)-1,1,1-Trifluoro-2-propanol functions as a competitive inhibitor at this site and prevents the substrate from entering the active site. The enzyme's activity is restored when (R)-1,1,1-trifluoro-2-propanol leaves the active site. Tropinone can also be synthesized from (R)-1,1,1-trif
