Product Information

• Name: 1-Methylcyclohexanol
• Brand: Biosynth
• Description: 1-Methylcyclohexanol is a molecule that belongs to the group of isomers. It has one hydroxyl group and one cyclohexanol. The 1-methylcyclohexanol can be obtained by dehydration of cyclohexanol using sodium nitrate as a catalyst. The reaction mechanism of this reaction is the exchange of hydrogen bonds between the hydroxyl group and hydrogen atoms on the nitrate ion. This results in the formation of a new covalent bond, which is responsible for breaking the original bond between the hydroxyl group and carbon atom. The vibrational spectra observed in this reaction are due to stretching, bending, and wagging motions in the molecules. Molecular modeling can be used to predict how these reactions will take place at an atomic level. 1-Methylcyclohexanol has two functional groups: a hydroxyl group and a hydroxylic carbonyl group (carbonyl with an oxygen atom double bonded to a carbon
