2-Cyclopropylethanol

Description:

2-Cyclopropylethanol is an organic compound characterized by its cyclopropyl group attached to an ethanol backbone. It features a three-membered cyclopropane ring, which imparts unique strain and reactivity to the molecule. The compound has a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group, making it an alcohol, which contributes to its polar nature and ability to engage in hydrogen bonding. This property influences its solubility in water and other polar solvents. 2-Cyclopropylethanol is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low boiling point compared to larger alcohols. Its structure allows for potential applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of the cyclopropyl group can affect the compound's reactivity and stability, making it of interest in various chemical reactions, including those involving nucleophilic substitution or elimination. Overall, 2-Cyclopropylethanol is a compound of interest in both academic research and industrial applications due to its unique structural features.
