Description

1-Methyl-4-[(R)-methylsulfinyl]benzene is an organic compound with the formula (CHSOSCF). It is a chiral sulfoxide. The compound is of interest for its use in asymmetric synthesis. It can be used as an enantiomerically pure building block for the synthesis of β-unsaturated ketones, sulfoxides, and sulfones. This compound is synthesized by reacting methyl trifluoroacetate with sodium methoxide in methanol. The kinetic and selectivity properties of this reaction depend on the substrate concentration.
