2-(Methoxymethyl)-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol

Description:
2-(Methoxymethyl)-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol, with the CAS number 21398-89-0, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a methoxymethyl group and a hydroxyl functional group. This compound is a diol, meaning it contains two hydroxyl (-OH) groups, which contribute to its hydrophilicity and potential for hydrogen bonding. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a moderate viscosity. The presence of the methoxy group enhances its solubility in organic solvents while still allowing for some water solubility due to the hydroxyl groups. This compound is often utilized in the synthesis of various chemical intermediates and may serve as a plasticizer or solvent in industrial applications. Its reactivity can be attributed to the hydroxyl groups, making it suitable for further chemical modifications. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
