Carbamic acid, N-((1R)-2-hydroxy-1-phenylethyl)-, 1,1-dimethylethyl ester

Its specific use depends on the larger context of the synthesis, but it serves as a chiral building block due to the specific (1R) stereochemistry of the molecule. Carbamic acid, N-((1R)-2-hydroxy-1-phenylethyl)-, 1,1-dimethylethyl ester (also known as N-Boc-D-Phenylglycinol) is used in synthetic organic chemistry, particularly as an intermediate and building block for creating more complex molecules in pharmaceutical and chemical research.
