5-Methyl-1,3-dioxane-5-methanol

Description:
5-Methyl-1,3-dioxane-5-methanol, with the CAS number 1121-97-7, is an organic compound characterized by its dioxane ring structure, which features two ether linkages and a hydroxymethyl group. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is soluble in water due to the presence of the hydroxymethyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The methyl group contributes to its hydrophobic character, influencing its overall solubility and reactivity. It is typically used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. The presence of the dioxane moiety suggests potential applications in the synthesis of polymers or as a solvent in chemical reactions. However, safety considerations should be taken into account, as dioxane derivatives can pose health risks, including potential carcinogenicity. Proper handling and storage protocols are essential when working with this substance in a laboratory or industrial setting.
