2,6-Dimethylcyclohexanol

Description:
2,6-Dimethylcyclohexanol is a cyclic alcohol characterized by a cyclohexane ring with two methyl groups attached at the 2 and 6 positions and a hydroxyl (-OH) group at one of the carbon atoms in the ring. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and possesses a distinctive odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water due to the hydrophobic nature of the cyclohexane structure. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts some polar characteristics, allowing for hydrogen bonding. 2,6-Dimethylcyclohexanol can exist in different stereoisomeric forms, which may influence its physical and chemical properties. It is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals. Additionally, it may serve as a solvent or a fragrance component in certain applications. Safety data indicates that, like many alcohols, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.
