CAS 2914-69-4: 3-Butyn-2-ol, (2S)-

(2S)-(-)-But-3-yn-2-ol

(S)-(-)-3-Butyn-2-ol is an experimentally determined, chiral molecule. It has been shown to have a functional site that is responsible for catalytic activity. (S)-(-)-3-Butyn-2-ol is also a type of molecule that has a trackable conformation and can be observed using dichroism spectra. The kinetic theory has been applied to the study of this molecule, which has led to the discovery of populations in its conformational space.

(S)-(-)-3-Butyn-2-ol is used to prepare (S)-(-)-2-tert-butyldimethylsiloxybut-3-yne. It finds application in ruthenium-catalyzed polymerization to get helical polyacetylenes.
