QUICK LINKS
(R)-4-Phenyloxazolidine-2-thione is a chiral compound that features a unique structural motif, combining an oxazolidine ring—a five-membered heterocyclic ring containing both oxygen and nitrogen atoms—with a phenyl group and a thione moiety (a sulfur-containing carbonyl analog). This compound′s chirality, denoted by the (R)-configuration, indicates that it has a specific three-dimensional arrangement of atoms, which is for its activity in chemical synthesis and catalysis. The presence of both oxazolidine and thione functionalities makes (R)-4-Phenyloxazolidine-2-thione a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the construction of sulfur-containing compounds and the asymmetric synthesis of amino acids and their derivatives.
