Cyclohexanepropanol, b-methyl-

Description:

Cyclohexanepropanol, b-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by its cyclohexane ring structure with a propanol side chain and a methyl group attached to the beta position of the propanol. This compound is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature and exhibits a relatively low boiling point, indicative of its non-polar nature. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic cyclohexane component. The presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group in the propanol side chain contributes to its potential as a solvent and reagent in various chemical reactions. Cyclohexanepropanol, b-methyl- may also exhibit moderate volatility and can participate in hydrogen bonding, influencing its physical properties and reactivity. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Its applications can range from use in chemical synthesis to potential roles in the fragrance and flavor industries, depending on its specific properties and reactivity.

Cyclohexanepropanol, beta-methyl-

CAS: 76019-90-4

Cyclohexanepropanol, beta-methyl- is an enantioselective lipase that can be used for the production of chiral drugs and fine chemicals. This enzyme has a high enantioselectivity for esters, alcohols, and solvents. Cyclohexanepropanol, beta-methyl- is one of the most cost-effective enzymes for these reactions. The kinetic properties of this enzyme allows it to efficiently catalyze the hydrolysis of esters under mild conditions. The best results are obtained when using aryl groups with electron withdrawing substituents.
