trans-2-Methylcyclohexanol

Description:
Trans-2-Methylcyclohexanol is an organic compound classified as a cyclic alcohol. It features a cyclohexane ring with a methyl group and a hydroxyl group (-OH) positioned on adjacent carbon atoms, specifically in a trans configuration. This structural arrangement influences its physical and chemical properties, including its boiling point, melting point, and solubility. Typically, trans-2-Methylcyclohexanol is a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor, and it is moderately soluble in water due to the presence of the hydroxyl group, which can form hydrogen bonds. The compound is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals. Its reactivity includes typical alcohol reactions, such as oxidation and esterification. 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 and handling protocols are essential to ensure safety in laboratory and industrial settings.
