CAS 10203-33-5
:5-Dodecanol
Description:
5-Dodecanol, with the CAS number 10203-33-5, is a long-chain fatty alcohol characterized by its linear structure consisting of a twelve-carbon chain with a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to the fifth carbon. This compound is typically a colorless, waxy solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents while exhibiting limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic alkyl chain. 5-Dodecanol is known for its applications in the production of surfactants, emulsifiers, and as a lubricant in various industrial processes. It also serves as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts mild hydrophilic properties, allowing it to interact with both polar and non-polar substances. Additionally, it has a relatively high boiling point and melting point compared to shorter-chain alcohols, reflecting its larger molecular size. Safety data indicates that, like many fatty alcohols, it should be handled with care to avoid skin and eye irritation.
