• Description: (S)-(-)-3-Chloro-1-phenyl-1-propanol is an efficient method for the synthesis of chiral propiophenone. It is synthesized by reacting a mixture of borane and tetrahydrofuran with (S)-(-)-3-chloro-1-phenylpropanol. This reaction produces the desired compound in good yield and high diastereoselectivity. The synthesis of this compound has been shown to be useful for the production of antidepressant drugs, such as κ-opioid receptor ligands, which are used to treat depression, anxiety, and chronic pain.
