CAS 33758-15-5
:(2R)-decan-2-ol
Description:
(2R)-Decan-2-ol, with the CAS number 33758-15-5, is a chiral alcohol belonging to the class of aliphatic alcohols. It features a straight-chain structure with a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to the second carbon of a decane chain, making it a secondary alcohol. This compound is characterized by its hydrophobic nature due to the long hydrocarbon chain, while the hydroxyl group imparts some degree of polarity, allowing for hydrogen bonding. As a result, (2R)-decan-2-ol exhibits moderate solubility in water and is more soluble in organic solvents. It has applications in the synthesis of various chemical compounds and may serve as a surfactant or emulsifier in industrial processes. The presence of the chiral center means that it can exist in two enantiomeric forms, with (2R)-decan-2-ol being one specific configuration. Its physical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, are influenced by the length of the carbon chain and the functional group, making it relevant in both chemical research and industrial applications.
