CAS 2325-10-2

(S,S)-(-)-Hydrobenzoin

Description:

(S,S)-(-)-Hydrobenzoin, with the CAS number 2325-10-2, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of alcohols and is a diastereomer of hydrobenzoin. It is characterized by its chiral nature, possessing two stereocenters, which results in its specific optical activity. This compound typically appears as a white crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water. Hydrobenzoin is often used in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals, due to its ability to act as a chiral auxiliary or a reducing agent. Its structure features a benzene ring and two hydroxyl groups, which contribute to its reactivity and interactions in chemical reactions. Additionally, (S,S)-(-)-Hydrobenzoin can undergo oxidation to form benzil, making it a valuable intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as with many organic compounds, to avoid potential health hazards.
