Cyclohexanone, 4-hydroxy-4-(2-pyridinyl)-

Description:

Cyclohexanone, 4-hydroxy-4-(2-pyridinyl)-, also known by its CAS number 10421-19-9, is an organic compound characterized by a cyclohexanone ring substituted with a hydroxyl group and a pyridine moiety. This compound typically exhibits a colorless to pale yellow appearance and has a distinctive odor reminiscent of ketones. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the presence of the hydroxyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The presence of the pyridine ring contributes to its potential as a ligand in coordination chemistry and may influence its reactivity and biological activity. Cyclohexanone derivatives are often utilized in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, and as intermediates in the production of various chemical compounds. Its properties, such as boiling point and melting point, can vary based on the specific structural features and substituents present. As with many organic compounds, appropriate safety measures should be taken when handling this substance due to potential health hazards.
