tert-Butyl (S)-(1-fluoropropan-2-yl)carbamate

tert-Butyl (S)-(1-fluoropropan-2-yl)carbamate, identified by CAS 1187926-63-1, is a chiral fluorinated organic compound. It incorporates a tert-butyl carbamate (Boc) protecting group on an amine and a fluorine atom at the 1-position of the (S)-1-fluoropropan-2-yl moiety. This compound is a valuable functionalized intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly for preparing fluorinated amines, amino acids, or other complex molecules where precise stereochemistry and fluorine incorporation are essential. The Boc group facilitates selective protection and deprotection, making it suitable for multi-step synthetic routes and asymmetric synthesis applications in research.

• Handle tert-Butyl (S)-(1-fluoropropan-2-yl)carbamate with appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including chemical-resistant gloves, eye protection, and a lab coat. Ensure use in a well-ventilated area or a fume hood to prevent inhalation. Avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. In case of exposure, rinse affected areas thoroughly with water. Store the compound in a cool, dry place, segregated from incompatible materials. Always refer to the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for comprehensive hazard information and detailed safe handling protocols before use.
