:decane-2,4-diol
Description:
Decane-2,4-diol is an organic compound classified as a diol, specifically a straight-chain aliphatic alcohol with two hydroxyl (-OH) groups located at the second and fourth carbon atoms of a decane backbone. Its molecular formula is C10H22O2, indicating it contains ten carbon atoms, twenty-two hydrogen atoms, and two oxygen atoms. This compound is typically a colorless, viscous liquid at room temperature, exhibiting moderate solubility in water due to the presence of hydroxyl groups, which can form hydrogen bonds. Decane-2,4-diol is used in various applications, including as a solvent, in the synthesis of other organic compounds, and potentially in the formulation of surfactants or plasticizers. Its physical and chemical properties, such as boiling point and viscosity, are influenced by the length of the carbon chain and the positioning of the hydroxyl groups. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
