CAS 4161-24-4

4-butoxybutan-1-ol

Description:

4-Butoxybutan-1-ol, with the CAS number 4161-24-4, is an organic compound classified as a butanol derivative. It features a butoxy group attached to a butan-1-ol backbone, making it a member of the alcohol functional group. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It is soluble in water and organic solvents, which enhances its utility in various applications, including as a solvent and in chemical synthesis. The presence of both hydrophobic (butoxy) and hydrophilic (alcohol) components in its structure contributes to its amphiphilic nature, allowing it to interact with both polar and nonpolar substances. 4-Butoxybutan-1-ol is used in formulations for coatings, adhesives, and cleaning products due to its ability to improve the properties of these materials. Safety data indicates that, like many alcohols, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes and should be used in well-ventilated areas to avoid inhalation of vapors.
