Methyl (2S)-2-(phenylmethoxy)propanoate

Description:
Methyl (2S)-2-(phenylmethoxy)propanoate, with the CAS number 77287-11-7, is an organic compound characterized by its ester functional group. It features a methyl ester derived from a chiral propanoic acid, specifically the (2S)-enantiomer, which contributes to its stereochemical properties. The presence of the phenylmethoxy group enhances its hydrophobic characteristics, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a pleasant aroma, indicative of its ester nature. It is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. The compound's reactivity is influenced by the ester bond, making it susceptible to hydrolysis under acidic or basic conditions. Additionally, its chirality may impart specific biological activities, which can be relevant in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
