CAS 3524-62-7: (±)-Benzoin methyl ether

Description: (±)-Benzoin methyl ether, with the CAS number 3524-62-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ether functional group and a benzoin structure. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. This compound is known for its role as a reagent in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of various derivatives and in photochemical reactions. It exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, while being less soluble in water due to its hydrophobic aromatic components. The presence of the methyl ether group enhances its stability and reactivity compared to its parent compound, benzoin. Additionally, (±)-Benzoin methyl ether can undergo various chemical transformations, including oxidation and reduction, making it a valuable intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry. Its chiral nature, indicated by the (±) designation, suggests that it exists as a racemic mixture of enantiomers, which may exhibit different biological activities. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
