Description:Cyclobutanemethanol, with the CAS number 4415-82-1, is an organic compound characterized by a cyclobutane ring bonded to a methanol group. This structure imparts unique properties to the molecule, including its potential as a solvent and intermediate in organic synthesis. Cyclobutanemethanol is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature, exhibiting moderate volatility and solubility in polar solvents due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group. The compound's cyclobutane ring contributes to its strain and reactivity, making it an interesting subject for studies in ring strain and reactivity patterns. Additionally, cyclobutanemethanol may participate in various chemical reactions, such as oxidation and substitution, which can lead to the formation of more complex molecules. Its applications can extend to pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science, where it may serve as a building block or functional component. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
