Description

Norbornane-2-methanol is a viscosity additive in lubricants, diesel fuel, and other industrial products. It is also used as a grignard reagent for the synthesis of organic compounds. Norbornane-2-methanol has been shown to react with copper chromite to produce the reactive chemical species quadricyclane, which can be used to synthesize organic compounds. Norbornane-2-methanol also reacts with primary alcohols to form a thermally stable c-h bond. The deuterium labeled version of this compound has been used in techniques such as nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy and mass spectrometry.
