Chemical Properties

off-white crystalline powder

Uses

(1R,2R)-rel-trans-1,2-Cyclopentanediol is a building block for the synthesis of chiral phosphine ligands. It can also be used to prepare benzoquinolines and benzoindoles via heterocyclization of naphthylamines with diols catalyzed by iridium chloride/BINAP.
