| (S)-(+)-Epichlorohydrin Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | Colorless to light yellow liqui | Chemical Properties | Epichlorhydrin is a colourless liquid with
odour, b.p. 115°C. | Uses | S-enantiomer of Epichlorohydrin, (S)-Epichlorohydrin), an important industrial chemical, is a bifunctional alkylating agent with the potential to form DNA cross-links. It is used as a solvent for natural and synthetic resins, gums, cellulose esters and ethers, paints, varnishes, nail enamels and lacquers, cement for Celluloid. Also, it is used as stabilizer.
| Uses | (S)-(+)-Epichlorohydrin is utilized for the synthesis of macquarimicins and hydroxyisoxazolidines and (+)-cis-sylvaticin, which is a potential antitumor agent. It is used to synthesize inhibitors of fatty acid oxidation as potential metabolic modulators. It acts as a solvent for natural and synthetic resins, gums, cellulose esters and ethers, paints, varnishes, nail enamels, lacquers and cement for celluloid. It is also used as a stabilizer and also useful as a bifunctional alkylating agent with the potential to form DNA cross-links. | Definition | ChEBI: (S)-epichlorohydrin is an epichlorohydrin. It is functionally related to a (R)-1,2-epoxypropane. It is an enantiomer of a (R)-epichlorohydrin. |
