Description:Ethanol, 2-(2-azidoethoxy)-, also known by its CAS number 139115-90-5, is a chemical compound characterized by the presence of an azido group (-N3) attached to an ethoxy chain. This compound features a two-carbon ethanol backbone, which contributes to its solubility in polar solvents. The azido group is notable for its reactivity, particularly in click chemistry applications, where it can participate in various reactions such as cycloadditions. The presence of the ethoxy group enhances its potential as a solvent or reagent in organic synthesis. Ethanol, 2-(2-azidoethoxy)- is typically handled with caution due to the inherent instability of azides, which can decompose explosively under certain conditions. Its applications may extend to medicinal chemistry, materials science, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of more complex molecules. As with any chemical, proper safety protocols should be followed when handling this compound to mitigate risks associated with its reactive functional groups.
