2,3,3-trimethylbutan-2-ol

Description:
2,3,3-Trimethylbutan-2-ol, with the CAS number 594-83-2, is a tertiary alcohol characterized by its branched structure. It features a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to a carbon atom that is also bonded to three other carbon atoms, making it a tertiary alcohol. This compound is typically a colorless liquid with a mild odor and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chains. It has a relatively low boiling point compared to other alcohols, which is indicative of its molecular weight and structure. The presence of multiple methyl groups contributes to its steric hindrance, affecting its reactivity and interactions with other molecules. 2,3,3-Trimethylbutan-2-ol is often used as a solvent and in organic synthesis, and it can participate in various chemical reactions typical of alcohols, such as dehydration and oxidation. Its unique structure and properties make it of interest in both industrial applications and academic research.
