3-(Benzyloxy)-1,2-propanediol

Description:

3-(Benzyloxy)-1,2-propanediol, with the CAS number 4799-67-1, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a propanediol backbone substituted with a benzyloxy group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but its solubility in water is limited due to the hydrophobic nature of the benzyl group. The presence of hydroxyl groups in its structure contributes to its potential as a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. Additionally, the compound may exhibit properties such as hygroscopicity and the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which can influence its reactivity and interactions in various chemical environments. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.

1-Benzylglycerol

CAS: 4799-67-1

1-Benzylglycerol is a bifunctional reagent that can be used as an inorganic base or an organic solvent. It has been used to synthesize enantiopure compounds, such as fatty acids. 1-Benzylglycerol reacts with boron trifluoride etherate to form the corresponding ester, which is a reaction system for the synthesis of persulfates. The hydroxyl group on 1-benzylglycerol can be reacted with hydroxyl groups on fatty acids, catalyzed by lipase or chemoenzymes, to produce esters. 1-Benzylglycerol has been used in asymmetric synthesis and carbon tetrachloride immobilization reactions.
