CAS 4209-90-9: 2,2-Dimethyl-3-hexanol

Description: 2,2-Dimethyl-3-hexanol is an organic compound classified as a tertiary alcohol due to the presence of a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to a carbon atom that is connected to three other carbon atoms. Its molecular formula is C8H18O, indicating it contains eight carbon atoms, eighteen hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless liquid with a characteristic alcohol odor. It has a relatively low boiling point compared to other alcohols, which is indicative of its molecular weight and structure. 2,2-Dimethyl-3-hexanol is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. The presence of the bulky dimethyl groups can influence its reactivity and steric hindrance, making it less reactive than primary or secondary alcohols. This compound is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with all chemical substances.
