Description:2-Methyl-4-phenyl-3-butyne-2-ol, with the CAS number 1719-19-3, is an organic compound characterized by its alkyne functional group and a hydroxyl group, making it an alcohol. This compound features a butyne backbone, which is a four-carbon chain with a triple bond, and it is substituted with a methyl group and a phenyl group, contributing to its unique properties. The presence of the hydroxyl group indicates that it can engage in hydrogen bonding, which affects its solubility and boiling point. Typically, compounds of this nature exhibit moderate polarity due to the combination of hydrophobic hydrocarbon chains and the hydrophilic hydroxyl group. This compound may be used in organic synthesis and could serve as an intermediate in the production of more complex molecules. Its reactivity can be influenced by the steric and electronic effects of the substituents, making it a subject of interest in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic additions and eliminations. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
