CAS 4448-75-3
:Cycloheptanemethanol
Description:
Cycloheptanemethanol, with the CAS number 4448-75-3, is an organic compound characterized by a cycloheptane ring substituted with a hydroxymethyl group. This compound features a seven-membered carbon ring, which contributes to its unique structural properties and reactivity. Cycloheptanemethanol is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a moderate boiling point, indicative of its molecular weight and structure. The presence of the hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) introduces polar characteristics, allowing for potential hydrogen bonding, which can influence its solubility in various solvents. This compound may be utilized in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of other chemical substances. Its reactivity can be attributed to the functional groups present, making it a candidate for further chemical transformations. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.

cycloheptylmethanol
CAS:<p>Cycloheptylmethanol is a compound that activates adrenergic receptors. It has been shown to inhibit the sodium borohydride reduction of cholesterol, which is responsible for the formation of amyloid plaques in Alzheimer's disease. Cycloheptylmethanol also inhibits the synthesis of sclerotic proteins and has been found to be an effective treatment against cancer and neuropathic pain. Due to its chemical structure, cycloheptylmethanol is known as a chiral compound. There are three stereoisomers: (3"R")-cycloheptylmethanol, (3"S")-cycloheptylmethanol, and (3"R",3"S")-cycloheptylmethanol. The 3"R",3"S"-isomer is more potent than the other two stereoisomers because it binds more tightly to opioid receptors and has greater receptor activity.</p>Formula:C8H16OPurity:Min. 95%Molecular weight:128.22 g/mol
