(2R,3S)-3-(N-BOC-Amino)-1-oxirane-4-phenylbutane is a chiral epoxide intermediate synthesized via asymmetric ring-opening or stereoselective oxidation. Its molecular formula is C17H25NO3. This compound serves as a critical building block for beta-blockers and cardiovascular agents.
Store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent epoxide ring polymerization. Handle with appropriate PPE due to potential skin sensitization and reactivity. Strictly limit exposure during clinical trials to avoid off-target toxicity.
