(R,R)-(+)-Hydrobenzoin（Cat No.:I015567）is a chiral organic compound and a diastereomer of hydrobenzoin, with two hydroxyl groups attached to a benzene ring. It is commonly used in asymmetric synthesis as a chiral auxiliary, helping to control the stereochemistry of reactions. The (R,R)-enantiomer is particularly useful in catalytic processes, including the reduction of carbonyl compounds and in the synthesis of optically active compounds. Hydrobenzoin is also employed in the preparation of other chiral intermediates in pharmaceutical and fine chemical synthesis. Its stereochemistry makes it valuable for producing enantiomerically pure products.
