Nature:
-If solid, it is white crystal, soluble in most organic solvents.
-It has a sweet and aromatic smell.
-1,2-diphenylethanol has chirality, that is, it has two enantiomers, (S)-and (R)-1,2-diphenylethanol.
Use:
-1,2-diphenylethanol can be used as an important raw material in organic synthesis. It can be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of diacetophenone, heterosuccinate and other organic compounds.
-Because of its chirality, it can also be used for the synthesis of chiral ligands and catalysts for enantioselective organic reactions.
