(±)-2-Decanol

Description:

(±)-2-Decanol is a branched-chain alcohol with the molecular formula C10H22O. It is characterized by its long hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its hydrophobic properties, while the hydroxyl (-OH) group imparts some degree of polarity. This compound typically appears as a colorless liquid with a mild, fatty odor. It has a relatively high boiling point compared to shorter-chain alcohols due to increased van der Waals forces associated with its larger molecular size. (±)-2-Decanol is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, reflecting its amphiphilic nature. It is often used in the synthesis of surfactants, lubricants, and as a solvent in various chemical processes. Additionally, its chiral nature means it exists as a racemic mixture, containing equal amounts of its enantiomers, which can exhibit different biological activities. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.
