(2R,3R)-2,3-Epoxy-1-octanol is a chiral organic compound with the molecular formula C8H16O2. It is a cyclic ether, specifically an epoxy alcohol, characterized by the presence of a three-membered epoxy ring (an oxirane) and a primary alcohol group. The compound is a liquid at room temperature and has a旋光性 due to its chiral centers at the 2nd and 3rd carbon atoms. It is synthesized through various methods, including the reaction of allylic alcohols with performic acid or the Sharpless epoxidation using a titanium-tartrate catalyst. (2R,3R)-2,3-Epoxy-1-octanol has potential applications in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and other specialty chemicals, as well as in the study of stereochemistry and asymmetric synthesis.
The CAS Registry Mumber 97589-09-8 includes 8 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 5 digits, 9,7,5,8 and 9 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 0 and 9 respectively. Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 97589-09: (7*9)+(6*7)+(5*5)+(4*8)+(3*9)+(2*0)+(1*9)=198 198 % 10 = 8 So 97589-09-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
