L-(+)-Prolinol

Product name: L-(+)-Prolinol   
CAS: 23356-96-9
Molecular Formula:C5H12NO
Molecular Weight:102.1543
Description:
Prolinol is a chiral amino-alcohol that is used as a chiral building block in organic synthesis. It exists as two enantiomers: the D and L forms.Prolinol is obtained by reduction of the amino acid proline using lithium aluminium hydride.Because proline is cheaply available in high optical purity, enantiomerically pure prolinol is also widely available.
