CAS 1767-46-0

Methylhexanol; 98%

Description:

Methylhexanol, specifically the isomeric form associated with the CAS number 1767-46-0, is an organic compound belonging to the alcohol family. It is characterized by a six-carbon chain with a hydroxyl (-OH) group, making it a primary alcohol. This substance is typically a colorless liquid with a mild odor and is known for its hydrophobic nature, meaning it has limited solubility in water but is soluble in organic solvents. Methylhexanol is used in various industrial applications, including as a solvent, in the production of plasticizers, and as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemicals. Its chemical stability and relatively low volatility make it suitable for use in formulations requiring a longer shelf life. Safety considerations include handling it in well-ventilated areas and using appropriate personal protective equipment, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes. Overall, methylhexanol is valued for its functional properties in chemical manufacturing and formulation processes.

(S)-(+)-4-Methyl-1-hexanol

CAS: 1767-46-0

(S)-(+)-4-Methyl-1-hexanol is a synthetic compound that has been shown to have antibacterial activity against Staphylococcus aureus. The (R)-enantiomer of the compound, which has been synthesized in the past, has also shown activity against S. aureus. However, this enantiomer is not commercially available. The (S)-enantiomer is soluble in organic solvents and can be used as an attractant for S. aureus monitoring purposes. In addition, it has antioxidant potential and may be useful as a medicine for short-chain fatty acid production disorders.
