Overview
(S)-3-Phenoxybenzaldehyde cyanohydrin is a chiral intermediate synthesized via asymmetric nucleophilic addition. Molecular Formula: C14H11NO2. CAS No.: 107659-88-3.
Application
- Asymmetric synthesis of pyrethroid insecticides.
- Key building block for pharmaceutical chiral scaffolds.
- Intermediate in agrochemical active ingredient production.
Precautions
Store under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C. Avoid moisture to prevent hydrolysis. Use appropriate PPE due to potential cyanide release upon decomposition.
