5-butyldodecan-5-ol

Description:
5-Butyldodecan-5-ol is a long-chain alcohol characterized by its structure, which includes a dodecane backbone with a butyl group attached to the fifth carbon and a hydroxyl (-OH) functional group at the same position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature and exhibits a hydrophobic nature due to its long hydrocarbon chain, which contributes to its low solubility in water. However, it is soluble in organic solvents, making it useful in various applications, including as a surfactant, emulsifier, or in formulations requiring hydrophobic properties. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts some polar characteristics, allowing for potential interactions with other polar substances. Additionally, 5-butyldodecan-5-ol may exhibit properties such as moderate volatility and a relatively high boiling point compared to shorter-chain alcohols. Its applications can extend to the cosmetic and personal care industries, as well as in the formulation of lubricants and plasticizers. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines.
