Description

(R)-(-)-alpha-(Trifluoromethyl)Benzyl Alcohol is a fluorinated alcohol that can be used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. It has been deuterated to facilitate the study of its catalytic properties and to allow for kinetic studies. (R)-(-)-alpha-(Trifluoromethyl)Benzyl Alcohol is stable in acidic conditions, making it suitable for reactions with basic substrates. The rate enhancement of (R)-(-)-alpha-(Trifluoromethyl)Benzyl Alcohol is provided by the intramolecular hydrogen bond between the two hydrogens on the oxygen molecule.
