(1S)-1-naphthalen-2-ylethanol
(1S)-1-Naphthalen-2-ylethanol is an organic compound that belongs to the class of alcohols. It has a naphthalene ring system, which is a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon composed of two fused benzene rings. The compound is characterized by the presence of an ethanol group (–CH2CH3) attached to the 1-position of the naphthalene ring, and the stereochemistry at the 1-position is specified as (S), indicating that it is the enantiomer with the S-configuration at that chiral center.
Here is a basic structural representation of (1S)-1-naphthalen-2-ylethanol:

C*H-CH3

NaphthaleneIn this structure:
- “Naphthalene” represents the naphthalene ring system.
- “C*” indicates the chiral center at the 1-position of the naphthalene ring.
- “OH” is the hydroxyl group of the ethanol substituent.
- “CH3” is the methyl group of the ethanol substituent.
The (S)-configuration means that if you prioritize the groups attached to the chiral center according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog rules (with OH being the highest priority, followed by the naphthalene ring, then the CH2 group, and finally the H atom), the sequence of priorities decreases in a clockwise direction.
This compound may be of interest in organic synthesis, medicinal chemistry, or materials science, depending on its properties and reactivity. The enantiomeric purity of such compounds is often important in the synthesis of chiral drugs or catalysts.
