(S)-(+)-Phenylsuccinic acid

Ref. 3D-FP60123

Product Information

• Name: (S)-(+)-Phenylsuccinic acid
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: (S)-(+)-Phenylsuccinic acid is a chiral organic compound. It is an enantiomer of (R)-Phenylsuccinic acid that has been used for the asymmetric synthesis of amines, antihistamines, and other compounds. When used as a catalyst in reactions that are catalysed by organometallic reagents, (S)-(+)-phenylsuccinic acid exhibits vibrational enhancements and enantiopurity. The crystal structure of this substance was determined by X-ray diffraction and revealed a chiral molecule with two non-superimposable mirror images. This product can be synthesized by evaporation or crystallization from hexane. It has functional groups that are homochiral, which means they have the same molecular geometry but different orientations in space.
