14898-80-7 - Introduction
(S)-( )-4-Methyl-2-pentanol is a chiral organic compound with the chemical formula C6H14O. It is a colorless liquid with a slightly sweet fragrance. The optical rotation of this compound is positive, so it is called (S)-( )-4-Methyl-2-pentanol.
This compound is mainly used as a chiral inducer in pharmaceutical synthesis and organic synthesis. It can be used as the main raw material to manufacture chiral drugs, spices and additives. In addition, it can also be used for catalyst synthesis and proton transfer reactions.
The preparation method of (S)-( )-4-Methyl-2-pentanol is usually obtained by reducing pentanal under the action of a reducing agent. A common method is the carbonyl reduction of valeraldehyde with hydrogen in the presence of sodium carbonate and methanol to give the desired product.
In industrial use, the process of using this compound requires attention to some safety matters. It is a flammable liquid that burns or explodes when exposed to an open flame, and can form a flammable vapor mixture with air. Therefore, during use and storage, it is necessary to avoid contact with open flames or high-temperature substances, and to maintain a well-ventilated environment. At the same time, avoid contact with strong oxidants, acids or bases to prevent dangerous chemical reactions. During operation, protective gloves and goggles must be worn to ensure safety.
