Description:4-Methylcyclohexanemethanol is an organic compound characterized by its cyclohexane ring structure with a methyl group and a hydroxymethyl group attached. This compound is a colorless liquid at room temperature and is known for its pleasant odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. The presence of the methyl group contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its overall polarity. 4-Methylcyclohexanemethanol is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various chemicals and may also find applications in the formulation of fragrances and flavoring agents. Its chemical stability and relatively low volatility make it suitable for various industrial applications. Safety data indicates that, like many organic solvents, it should be handled with care to avoid inhalation or skin contact, and appropriate safety measures should be taken during its use.
