Product Information

• Name: 4-Chlorodiphenylcarbinol
• Synonyms: 4-Chlorobenzhydryl alcohol4-Chlorobenzhydrol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: The asymmetric synthesis of 4-chlorodiphenylcarbinol is an efficient method that uses a simple, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly reagent. The reaction proceeds in the presence of hydrochloric acid and sodium hydroxide solution. The reaction mechanism is the same as for the preparation of other chiral alcohols. The stereoselective preparation method is based on the use of glycol esters or trifluoroacetic acid to produce enantiomerically pure 4-chlorodiphenylcarbinol, which can be used as a precursor for pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and dyes.
