(4S)-2-Methyl-2,4-pentanediol

Description:
(4S)-2-Methyl-2,4-pentanediol, with the CAS number 99210-91-0, is a chiral organic compound characterized by its hydroxyl functional groups and a branched alkane structure. This compound features two hydroxyl (-OH) groups located at the second and fourth carbon atoms of a five-carbon chain, contributing to its classification as a diol. The presence of the methyl group at the second carbon enhances its steric properties and solubility in polar solvents. As a chiral molecule, it exists in two enantiomeric forms, with the (4S) designation indicating the specific spatial arrangement of its atoms. This compound is typically colorless and may exhibit moderate viscosity. Its applications can range from use as a solvent, in chemical synthesis, or as an intermediate in the production of other chemical substances. The presence of hydroxyl groups also suggests potential reactivity in condensation and esterification reactions, making it a versatile compound in organic chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
