Phenol, 5-(1,1-dimethylhexyl)-2-(3-hydroxycyclohexyl)-, cis-

Description:

Phenol, 5-(1,1-dimethylhexyl)-2-(3-hydroxycyclohexyl)-, cis- is an organic compound characterized by its phenolic structure, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring. This specific compound features a bulky 1,1-dimethylhexyl group and a hydroxycyclohexyl substituent, contributing to its unique physical and chemical properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts moderate polarity, allowing for hydrogen bonding, which can influence its solubility in various solvents. This compound may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in fields such as pharmaceuticals or materials science. Its stability and reactivity can be affected by the steric hindrance introduced by the bulky substituents. As with many phenolic compounds, it may also have antioxidant properties. Safety data should be reviewed for handling and potential toxicity, as phenolic compounds can be hazardous.
