S/R-Valinol is a chiral building block derived from valine, synthesized via catalytic hydrogenation of valine esters. This process yields enantiomerically pure or racemic mixtures used in asymmetric synthesis. Molecular formula: C5H13NO; CAS No.: 2940-87-6 (racemic).
Store in sealed containers under inert atmosphere at 2-8°C to prevent oxidation. Use appropriate PPE including gloves and goggles; avoid inhalation due to potential respiratory irritation.
