(+)-2,3-Butanediol

Description:
(+)-2,3-Butanediol, with the CAS number 19132-06-0, is a chiral organic compound that belongs to the class of diols, specifically a vicinal diol due to the presence of two hydroxyl (-OH) groups on adjacent carbon atoms. It has the molecular formula C4H10O2 and is characterized by its colorless, viscous liquid form at room temperature. This compound exhibits a sweet taste and is soluble in water, making it useful in various applications, including as a solvent and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. The presence of the hydroxyl groups allows for hydrogen bonding, which contributes to its solubility and affects its physical properties, such as boiling and melting points. Additionally, (+)-2,3-butanediol is known for its role in fermentation processes and can be produced by certain microorganisms. Its chirality gives rise to different stereoisomers, with the (+) form being one of the enantiomers, which can exhibit distinct biological activities compared to its counterpart.
