(R)-(-)-2-Nonanol

Description:
(R)-(-)-2-Nonanol is a chiral alcohol with the molecular formula C9H20O, characterized by its long carbon chain and hydroxyl functional group. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and possesses a distinctive, pleasant odor, often described as floral or fruity. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic carbon chain. The presence of the chiral center at the second carbon atom gives rise to its enantiomeric form, which can exhibit different biological activities and sensory properties. (R)-(-)-2-Nonanol is utilized in various applications, including as a flavoring agent, fragrance component, and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Its enantiomeric purity is crucial in applications where specific biological interactions are desired, making it significant in the fields of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it can be produced through various synthetic routes, including asymmetric synthesis and fermentation processes.
