This compound is a chiral cyclic amino alcohol building block with a Boc-protected amine, widely used in pharmaceutical synthesis. The cis-1,2-substituted cyclopentane core serves as a key scaffold for GPCR ligands, kinase inhibitors, and CNS drug candidates. The Boc group enables orthogonal amine protection/deprotection, while the hydroxyl group allows further derivatization (esterification, etherification). It is also utilized in asymmetric synthesis and chiral library construction for SAR studies.
Acute toxicity data is limited; however, it is considered to have low acute toxicity. Skin contact may cause redness, itching, and mild dermatitis; rinse with plenty of water. Eye contact can lead to irritation, tearing, and conjunctivitis; flush with clean water for at least 15 minutes and seek medical attention if needed. Inhalation of dust may cause mild respiratory irritation. Use in a well-ventilated area; wear nitrile gloves and safety goggles during handling. Store separately from food, feed, and strong acids. Dispose of waste per local regulations.
