Here is a detailed product description for (R)-α-[2-(1-Naphthalenyloxy)ethyl]-benzenemethanol (CAS 156453-53-1) :
1. Chemical Identity: * IUPAC Name: (R)-α-[2-(Naphthalen-1-yloxy)ethyl]benzenemethanol * Common Synonyms: * (R)-2-(1-Naphthyloxy)-1-phenylethanol * (R)-1-(1-Naphthyloxy)-3-phenylpropan-2-ol (Note: While structurally accurate based on carbon chain numbering, the "benzenemethanol" naming emphasizes the chiral center phenyl group) * (R)-α-(2-((1-Naphthalenyl)oxy)ethyl)benzenemethanol * CAS Registry Number: 156453-53-1 * Molecular Formula: C₁₉H₁₈O₂ * Molecular Weight: 278.35 g/mol * Structure: Features a central chiral benzylic alcohol carbon (the carbinol carbon of benzenemethanol), bonded to a phenyl ring and a -CH₂CH₂O- linker, which is terminated by a 1-naphthyl (naphthalen-1-yl) group. The stereochemistry at the chiral carbon is specified as (R) -configuration.
2. Structural Characteristics & Properties: * Chirality: Possesses one stereogenic center at the benzhydrol carbon ( α -carbon bearing the OH and phenyl groups). Supplied specifically as the (R) -enantiomer. Enantiomeric purity is a critical specification. * Functional Groups: Primary alcohol (benzylic), aromatic ether (alkyl naphthyl ether), two aromatic rings (benzene and naphthalene). The benzylic OH group is mildly acidic and reactive. * Physical State: Typically a white to off-white solid at room temperature. * Melting Point: Literature values often report melting points around 90-95 °C, but this can vary slightly depending on purity and crystal form. (Specific lot-dependent data should be confirmed). * Solubility: Moderately soluble in common organic solvents such as dichloromethane (DCM), chloroform (CHCl₃), ethyl acetate (EtOAc), tetrahydrofuran (THF), and dimethylformamide (DMF). Slightly soluble or insoluble in water and aliphatic hydrocarbons (hexane, petroleum ether). * Optical Activity: Exhibits optical rotation due to its chiral nature. The specific rotation ([α]ᴅ) value depends on concentration, solvent, and temperature. Typical values might range significantly (e.g., +30° to +60° in common solvents like CHCl₃ or ethanol), but the exact value is a key specification for each batch. * Spectroscopic Data: Characteristic peaks expected in: * IR: Broad O-H stretch (~3200-3400 cm⁻¹), C-H aromatic stretches (~3000-3100 cm⁻¹), C-O stretch (alcohol and ether ~1000-1300 cm⁻¹), aromatic C=C stretches (~1450-1600 cm⁻¹). * ¹H NMR: Complex aromatic region (δ ~6.8-8.3 ppm), benzylic CH(OH) methine (~δ 4.8-5.2 ppm), diastereotopic -OCH₂CH(OH)- methylene protons (δ ~2.9-4.0 ppm), OH proton (~δ 2.0-3.0 ppm, exchangeable). * ¹³C NMR: Signals for aromatic carbons, benzylic CH (~δ 65-75 ppm), methylene carbons (~δ 60-70 ppm). * MS (EI): M⁺ expected at m/z 278, base peak often related to benzylic cleavage (e.g., m/z 105 [C₇H₇O⁺] or m/z 141 [C₁₀H₇O⁺ + H?]).
3 . Handling & Storage: * Stability: Stable under inert atmosphere (N₂, Ar) at recommended temperatures. Sensitive to strong acids, strong bases, and oxidizing agents. The benzylic alcohol could oxidize slowly over time. Light sensitivity possible (store in amber glass). * Storage Conditions: Store tightly sealed in a cool (2-8°C), dry place, preferably under inert gas and desiccant (argon/nitrogen atmosphere with silica gel). Protect from light and moisture. Long-term storage may require freezing (-20°C). * Handling: Handle with standard laboratory precautions. Use in a well-ventilated fume hood. Avoid contact with skin, eyes, and clothing. Avoid inhalation of dust. Wear appropriate PPE (lab coat, gloves, safety glasses). * Hygroscopicity: May have low to moderate hygroscopicity
4 . Applications: * Chiral Building Block/Synthon: Primarily used in organic synthesis, especially asymmetric synthesis, as a source of chirality due to its defined (R) -configuration. The alcohol and ether functionalities offer handles for further chemical modification (e.g., esterification, etherification, substitution reactions after activation). * Pharmaceutical Intermediates: May serve as a key intermediate in the synthesis of more complex chiral molecules, potentially for bioactive compounds or APIs (Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients), though this specific molecule is not generally recognized as a drug itself. Structural analogs have been explored. * Ligand or Catalyst Precursor: The chiral environment provided by the molecule could make it suitable for derivatization into chiral ligands for asymmetric catalysis or organocatalysts. * Resolution Agent: Potential use as a chiral derivatizing agent for the resolution of racemic acids (via diastereomeric ester formation).
5 . Safety (General - Consult SDS for Specific Batch): * Hazards: May be harmful if swallowed, inhaled, or absorbed through skin. May cause eye, skin, or respiratory irritation. Combustible solid. * Precautionary Statements: P261 (Avoid breathing dust/fume/gas/mist/vapours/spray), P264 (Wash skin thoroughly after handling), P270 (Do not eat, drink or smoke when using this product), P271 (Use only outdoors or in a well-ventilated area), P280 (Wear protective gloves/protective clothing/eye protection/face protection), P302+P352 (IF ON SKIN: Wash with plenty of soap and water), P304+P340 (IF INHALED: Remove victim to fresh air and keep at rest in a position comfortable for breathing), P305+P351+P338 (IF IN EYES: Rinse cautiously with water for several minutes.
