CAS 104-80-3

2,5-Bis[hydroxymethyl]tetrahydrofuran

Description:

2,5-Bis[hydroxymethyl]tetrahydrofuran, with the CAS number 104-80-3, is a chemical compound characterized by its tetrahydrofuran backbone, which is a five-membered cyclic ether. This compound features two hydroxymethyl groups (-CH2OH) attached to the 2 and 5 positions of the tetrahydrofuran ring, enhancing its reactivity and solubility in polar solvents. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a mild odor, and it is hygroscopic, meaning it can absorb moisture from the air. The presence of hydroxymethyl groups makes it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of polymers, resins, and other chemical derivatives. Its chemical properties include the ability to participate in various reactions such as etherification and esterification. Additionally, it is important to handle this compound with care, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use in laboratory or industrial settings.
