Cyclopropanol is an organic compound with the chemical formula C3H6O. It contains a
propanal.[3][4] This property is useful synthetically: cyclopropanol can be used as a synthon for the homoenolate of propanal. The chemical is also useful as a reagent to introduce a cyclopropyl group into ester, sulfate, and amine linkages. The resulting cyclopropyl-containing compounds have been used in investigations of potential antiviral drugs[5] and of modulators of protein trafficking.[6]
