:

(-)-3-Hydroxytetrahydrofuran

Description:
(-)-3-Hydroxytetrahydrofuran, with the CAS number 86087-24-3, is a cyclic ether characterized by a five-membered ring structure containing four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. This compound features a hydroxyl group (-OH) at the 3-position, which contributes to its reactivity and solubility in polar solvents. It is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a relatively low boiling point, indicative of its small molecular size. The presence of the hydroxyl group allows for hydrogen bonding, enhancing its solubility in water and other polar solvents. (-)-3-Hydroxytetrahydrofuran is of interest in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. Its stereochemistry, denoted by the prefix "(-)", indicates that it is the enantiomer with specific optical activity. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken due to potential hazards associated with its use.
