CAS 623-37-0: 3-Hexanol

Description: 3-Hexanol, with the CAS number 623-37-0, is a straight-chain aliphatic alcohol characterized by its six-carbon backbone and a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group located on the third carbon atom. This structural arrangement classifies it as a secondary alcohol. 3-Hexanol is a colorless liquid at room temperature and possesses a mild, pleasant odor, making it useful in various applications, including as a flavoring agent and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Its molecular formula is C6H14O, and it has a moderate boiling point, which is typical for alcohols of similar chain length. The substance is soluble in water due to the polar nature of the hydroxyl group, while also being soluble in organic solvents. 3-Hexanol exhibits typical alcohol reactivity, including oxidation to ketones and participation in esterification reactions. Safety considerations include flammability and potential irritation upon contact with skin or eyes, necessitating appropriate handling and storage measures.
