:3-Methyl-1,3,5-pentanetriol
Description:
3-Methyl-1,3,5-pentanetriol, with the CAS number 7564-64-9, is a chemical compound characterized by its structure as a triol, meaning it contains three hydroxyl (-OH) functional groups. This compound features a five-carbon backbone with a methyl group substituent at the second carbon position. Its molecular formula reflects the presence of both carbon and hydroxyl groups, contributing to its hydrophilic nature. 3-Methyl-1,3,5-pentanetriol is typically a colorless, viscous liquid at room temperature, exhibiting moderate solubility in water due to the hydroxyl groups, which can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. The presence of multiple hydroxyl groups also suggests potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and as a chemical intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, its structure may influence its reactivity and interactions with other chemical species, making it a subject of interest in both industrial and research settings. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance.
