<h3>Overview</h3>
<p><strong>(R)-(-)-Propylene Glycol</strong> (CAS 4254-14-2) is the optically active enantiomer of propylene glycol, synthesized via asymmetric catalysis or chiral resolution. Its molecular formula is C3H8O2, featuring specific stereochemical properties distinct from racemic mixtures.</p>
<h3>Application</h3>
<ul>
<li>Pharmaceutical synthesis as a chiral building block for enantiopure drugs.</li>
<li>Specialty solvent systems requiring precise optical rotation in analytical chemistry.</li>
<li>High-purity intermediates for agrochemical production.</li>
</ul>
<h3>Precautions</h3>
<p>Store in tightly sealed containers away from oxidizers. While generally safe, occupational exposure limits apply during handling to prevent respiratory irritation; ensure proper ventilation and PPE usage.</p>
