3-Piperidinol, 1-methyl-, (S)-, also known by its CAS number 62367-59-3, is a chiral organic compound characterized by a piperidine ring with a hydroxyl group and a methyl group attached. The (S)- designation indicates that it has a specific stereochemistry, which can influence its biological activity and interactions. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in water and various organic solvents, making it versatile for different applications in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical development. The presence of the hydroxyl group contributes to its potential as a nucleophile in chemical reactions. Additionally, due to its piperidine structure, it may exhibit properties relevant to medicinal chemistry, including potential use in the synthesis of various bioactive compounds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.

3-Piperidinol, 1-methyl-, (S)-

(S)-3-Hydroxy-1-methyl-piperidine is a pharmacological agent that belongs to the class of bronchodilatory agents. It has been shown to have an affinity for muscarinic receptors and can be used as a bronchodilator. It has also been found to be an antagonist of the quaternary ammonium ion, which may lead to anti-inflammatory activities. This drug is synthesized by converting the erythrohydroxypyridine into an oxime with hydrochloric acid and methyl iodide in the presence of zinc dust under refluxing conditions. The (S) enantiomer is more potent than its (R) counterpart and has a longer half-life in vivo.
