(R)-4-Phenyl-2-oxazolidinone is a chiral auxiliary defined by the molecular formula C9H9NO2 (CAS: 105567-89-9). It serves as a critical intermediate in asymmetric synthesis, primarily produced via ring-opening of epoxides with hydroxamic acids or cyclization of amino alcohols.
Store in a cool, dry place under inert atmosphere to prevent hydrolysis. Handle with appropriate PPE due to potential skin irritation; avoid inhalation of dust. Not intended for direct clinical use but strictly regulated during drug manufacturing processes.
