Description

Alpha-cyclopropylbenzyl alcohol is an organic compound that belongs to the group of carbinols. The most common use of this compound is as a reactant in the Diels-Alder reaction. This reaction involves the formation of a new carbon-carbon bond with two electron-deficient olefins and a dienophile, which can be either an alkene or another diisocyanate. Alpha-cyclopropylbenzyl alcohol reacts selectively with methyl ethyl, isopropyl, and n-propyl groups, which are present in many diisocyanates. The product of this reaction is always a ring-opening adduct containing aldehydes or urethanes. These reactions often produce polyesters as well when alpha-cyclopropylbenzyl alcohol reacts with cyclohexanedimethanol.
