2,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol

Description:
2,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol is a cyclic alcohol characterized by its six-membered carbon ring structure with two methyl groups attached at the 2 and 4 positions. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature, exhibiting a characteristic alcohol odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic cyclohexane ring. The presence of hydroxyl (-OH) functional group contributes to its reactivity, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as dehydration and oxidation. 2,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol can be synthesized through the reduction of corresponding ketones or aldehydes. It is used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of fragrances, pharmaceuticals, and other chemical compounds. Safety data indicates that, like many alcohols, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, well-ventilated area is recommended to prevent degradation and ensure stability.
