(S)-2-Phenylbutyric acid

Description:

(S)-2-Phenylbutyric acid is a chiral carboxylic acid characterized by its unique molecular structure, which includes a phenyl group attached to a butyric acid backbone. This compound is typically represented by the formula C11H14O2 and features a stereocenter at the second carbon, giving rise to its (S)-configuration. It is a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. The compound exhibits typical acid properties, including the ability to donate protons in solution, which is indicative of its carboxylic acid functional group. (S)-2-Phenylbutyric acid has applications in pharmaceutical research and synthesis, particularly in the development of chiral drugs, due to its stereochemical properties. Additionally, it may serve as a building block in organic synthesis, contributing to the formation of more complex molecules. Safety data indicates that, like many organic acids, it should be handled with care to avoid irritation or adverse reactions.
