Application: . (S)-(−)-Propylene oxide undergoes ring-opening upon treating with nucleophiles such as Grignard reagents or organolithium compounds to yield corresponding secondary alcohols.. It can be used in the synthesis of ligands to prepare of Pb(II) based coordination nets for the fabrication of white light-emitting diode materials.. It is a key starting material for the total synthesis of arenolide and (+)-aspicilin.
