4-Hydroxycyclohexanone is a reactive compound that contains a hydroxy group and a hydroxyl group. It reacts with various substances, including hydrogen bond, to form new compounds. 4-Hydroxycyclohexanone is used in the industrial production of other chemicals, such as cyclohexanone. The reactivity of 4-hydroxycyclohexanone can be determined by its nmr spectra. The deshielding effect of the hydroxyl group causes an upfield shift in the nmr spectrum. In addition, 4-hydroxycyclohexanone reacts with hydrochloric acid to form an ester and water. The reaction mechanism for this process is nucleophilic attack by the hydroxyl group on the carbonyl carbon atom in hydroxycyclohexanone.

2-Hydroxycyclohexanone dimer is a molecule that has a hydroxyl group, a carbon source, and two fatty acid chains. It can be used as an organic solvent. 2-Hydroxycyclohexanone dimer can be synthesized by reacting benzaldehyde with cyclohexanol in the presence of potassium hydroxide. The reaction mechanism for this synthesis is base formation followed by the cleavage of the ester bond to produce 2-hydroxycyclohexanone and cyclohexanol. 2-Hydroxycyclohexanone dimer has been shown to react with oxygen to form peroxide and hydrogen peroxide which are both oxidizing agents. This compound also has redox potentials that range from -0.77 V to -1.06 V, making it useful for electrochemical reactions in fuel cells or batteries.
