Cyclopentanemethanol, 2-methyl-

Description:
Cyclopentanemethanol, 2-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by its cyclopentane ring structure with a methyl group and a hydroxymethyl group attached. This compound belongs to the class of alcohols, specifically secondary alcohols, due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) functional group. Its molecular structure contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties, including moderate polarity, which influences its solubility in various solvents. The presence of the cyclopentane ring imparts a degree of rigidity to the molecule, affecting its reactivity and interactions with other substances. Cyclopentanemethanol, 2-methyl- may exhibit characteristics typical of alcohols, such as the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which can enhance its boiling point compared to hydrocarbons of similar molecular weight. Additionally, it may serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis or as a potential solvent or reagent in various chemical reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
