About (S)-Propylene carbonate, 98%

(S)-Propylene carbonate is an ether building block carrying the CAS registry number 51260-39-0 with a typical assay of 98%. With the molecular formula C4H6O3, it has a molar mass of 102.09 g/mol. The IUPAC name is (4S)-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one. Alternative names: (S)-1,2-Propanediol cyclic carbonate and (S)-4-Methyl-1,3-dioxolan-2-one.

The material typically appears as a colourless to light yellow to light orange liquid. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place, away from sources of ignition, with the container tightly sealed. Under GHS it is labelled “Warning”, so handle it with suitable PPE and consult the SDS.

Typical applications include organic synthesis and API synthesis. Buyers come mainly from pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

Standard pack sizes are 5 g, 25 g, 100 g and C, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
