CAS 2309-47-9
:α-Methyl-2-thiophenemethanol
Description:
α-Methyl-2-thiophenemethanol, with the CAS number 2309-47-9, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a thiophene ring and a hydroxymethyl group. This compound features a methyl group attached to the alpha position of the thiophene, which influences its chemical reactivity and physical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor, indicative of its aromatic structure. The presence of the hydroxymethyl group contributes to its potential as a building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. α-Methyl-2-thiophenemethanol exhibits moderate solubility in organic solvents and may have limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the thiophene ring. Its reactivity can be attributed to the functional groups present, allowing for various chemical transformations, including oxidation and substitution reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
