4-Methyl-1-pentanol

Description:

4-Methyl-1-pentanol, with the CAS number 626-89-1, is an organic compound classified as a branched-chain alcohol. It features a five-carbon chain with a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to the first carbon and a methyl group on the fourth carbon. This structure contributes to its unique properties, including being a colorless liquid at room temperature with a characteristic alcohol odor. It has moderate solubility in water due to the presence of the hydroxyl group, while also being more soluble in organic solvents. The compound exhibits a relatively low boiling point compared to larger alcohols, which is typical for its molecular weight. 4-Methyl-1-pentanol is used in various applications, including as a solvent and in the synthesis of other chemical compounds. Its physical and chemical properties make it relevant in both industrial and laboratory settings, where it may be utilized in organic synthesis and as a potential intermediate in the production of fragrances and flavoring agents. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as it can be flammable and may cause irritation.

Isohexanol

CAS: 626-89-1

Isohexanol is a chemical cross-linking agent that reacts with amines to form amide bonds. It is used in the synthesis of polyvinylpyrrolidone, which is an important component of pharmaceutical preparations. Isohexanol has been shown to react with glycol ethers to form ether adducts and has been used as a kinetic study reagent. The chemical reactions of isohexanol depend on its pH level, which can range from acidic (pH 2) to neutral (pH 7). At lower pH ranges, isohexanol will undergo side-chain cleavage to form methyl myristate, which is a fatty acid. Higher pH levels result in the formation of methyl ethyl and other volatile products.
