2-(Octylsulfinyl)ethanol

Description:

2-(Octylsulfinyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 7305-30-8, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a sulfinyl group (-S=O) attached to an octyl chain and an ethanol moiety. This compound typically exhibits properties associated with both alcohols and sulfides, including moderate polarity due to the hydroxyl (-OH) group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding, enhancing its solubility in polar solvents. The octyl group contributes to hydrophobic characteristics, making the compound amphiphilic. Its sulfinyl functional group may impart unique reactivity and stability compared to other sulfur-containing compounds. 2-(Octylsulfinyl)ethanol may be utilized in various applications, including as a surfactant, in pharmaceuticals, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. The compound's physical properties, such as boiling point, melting point, and density, would depend on its molecular structure and interactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
