Applications

Chiral pharmaceutical intermediate manufacturing — this chlorohydrin is the ring-opened form related to (S)-epichlorohydrin, a well-established chiral building block used in manufacturing single-enantiomer beta-blocker drugs (e.g., S-propranolol, S-atenolol class chemistry) and other stereodefined active pharmaceutical ingredients

Product Description

What is (S)-(+)-3-Chloro-1,2-Propanediol?

This compound is a single-enantiomer three-carbon chlorohydrin — a chlorine and two hydroxyl groups arranged on a stereodefined backbone. It’s closely related to (S)-epichlorohydrin, one of the standard chiral building blocks used throughout beta-blocker and other stereodefined pharmaceutical manufacturing.

Uses of (S)-(+)-3-Chloro-1,2-Propanediol

This compound is used as a chiral building block in pharmaceutical intermediate manufacturing, particularly in synthetic routes toward single-enantiomer beta-blocker active pharmaceutical ingredients.
