CAS 89479-94-7

2-Butanol, 1-[(phenylmethyl)amino]-, (R)-

Description:

2-Butanol, 1-[(phenylmethyl)amino]-, (R)-, with the CAS number 89479-94-7, is an organic compound characterized by its chiral structure, which includes a butanol moiety and a phenylmethylamino group. As a chiral alcohol, it exhibits optical activity, meaning it can exist in two enantiomeric forms, with the (R)- configuration being one of them. This compound is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and is soluble in polar solvents due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group. Its molecular structure allows for hydrogen bonding, which influences its physical properties such as boiling point and solubility. The presence of the phenylmethyl group contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, affecting its interactions with other molecules. 2-Butanol, 1-[(phenylmethyl)amino]-, (R)- may have applications in pharmaceuticals or as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of chiral drugs. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
