2-Methyl-2-hexanol

Description:

2-Methyl-2-hexanol is a branched-chain alcohol characterized by its molecular formula C7H16O. It features a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group attached to a carbon atom that is also connected to two other carbon atoms, making it a tertiary alcohol. This structure contributes to its relatively low reactivity compared to primary and secondary alcohols. 2-Methyl-2-hexanol is a colorless liquid at room temperature, with a mild, pleasant odor. It has a moderate boiling point and is soluble in organic solvents, but its solubility in water is limited due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. This compound is often used as a solvent and in the synthesis of other chemicals. Additionally, it exhibits properties typical of alcohols, such as the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which influences its physical properties like boiling point and viscosity. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it can be irritating to the skin and eyes, and proper safety measures should be taken during its use.
