CAS 4706-81-4
:(±)-2-Tetradecanol
Description:
(±)-2-Tetradecanol, with the CAS number 4706-81-4, is a long-chain fatty alcohol characterized by its aliphatic structure, consisting of a 14-carbon chain with a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to the second carbon. This compound is a chiral molecule, existing as a racemic mixture of its enantiomers, which contributes to its unique properties. It is typically a colorless, waxy solid at room temperature and is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. (±)-2-Tetradecanol is used in various applications, including as an emulsifier, surfactant, and in the formulation of cosmetics and personal care products due to its moisturizing properties. Additionally, it can serve as an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Its fatty alcohol nature imparts hydrophobic characteristics, making it useful in formulations that require stability and texture. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as with many chemical substances, to avoid potential irritation or adverse effects.
