TCI C1474 Ethyl (R)-(-)-4-Cyano-3-hydroxybutyrate is an enantiomerically defined chiral building block bearing nitrile, hydroxyl, and ester functionalities. It is widely recognised as a key intermediate toward the chiral dihydroxy side chain found in statin-type pharmaceutical compounds. The nitrile can be reduced or hydrolysed, the ester further derivatised, and the chiral alcohol used directly to construct additional stereocentres. AMI Scientific supplies this reagent in original TCI packaging across three pack sizes, and it should be stored cool, dry, and tightly sealed following the manufacturer's label recommendations.
