:Propanoic acid, 2-fluoro-, ethyl ester, (R)-
Description:
Propanoic acid, 2-fluoro-, ethyl ester, (R)-, also known by its CAS number 72959-94-5, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group derived from propanoic acid and ethanol. This compound features a chiral center, which gives rise to its (R)- configuration, indicating its specific spatial arrangement of atoms. The presence of a fluorine atom at the second carbon position of the propanoic acid backbone influences its chemical properties, potentially enhancing its reactivity and solubility in various solvents. Typically, esters like this one exhibit pleasant, fruity odors and are often used in flavoring and fragrance applications. In terms of physical properties, it is likely to be a colorless liquid at room temperature, with a moderate boiling point and low volatility. The compound may also participate in various chemical reactions, including hydrolysis and transesterification, making it of interest in both synthetic organic chemistry and industrial applications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
