CAS 813-72-9

2,2-Dimethylhexanoic acid

Description:

2,2-Dimethylhexanoic acid, with the CAS number 813-72-9, is a branched-chain fatty acid characterized by its unique structure, which includes two methyl groups attached to the second carbon of a hexanoic acid backbone. This compound is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and has a relatively low melting point. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. The presence of the carboxylic acid functional group imparts acidic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, such as esterification and amidation. 2,2-Dimethylhexanoic acid is used in the production of surfactants, lubricants, and plasticizers, and it can also serve as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Its branched structure contributes to its unique physical and chemical properties, making it valuable in industrial applications. Safety data indicates that, like many organic acids, it should be handled with care to avoid irritation to skin and eyes.
