CAS 17160-89-3: 1-(1-HYDROXY-CYCLOPENTYL)-ETHANONE

Description: 1-(1-Hydroxy-cyclopentyl)-ethanone, with the CAS number 17160-89-3, is an organic compound characterized by its cyclopentyl structure and a ketone functional group. This substance features a hydroxyl group attached to a cyclopentane ring, which contributes to its reactivity and potential for hydrogen bonding. The presence of the ethanone moiety indicates that it has a carbonyl group (C=O) adjacent to an ethyl group, which can influence its chemical behavior, including its reactivity in nucleophilic addition reactions. The compound is likely to be a colorless to pale yellow liquid, exhibiting moderate volatility and solubility in organic solvents. Its unique structure may impart specific properties such as fragrance or flavor characteristics, making it of interest in the fields of perfumery and food chemistry. Additionally, the hydroxyl group may enhance its solubility in polar solvents and affect its interaction with biological systems, suggesting potential applications in pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety and handling precautions should be observed, as with all chemical substances.
