Description

Tetrahydropyran-2-methanol is a hydrogenated, hydrated, triflic acid derivative that belongs to the group of organic compounds known as ethers. The presence of a hydroxyl group on one end and a chloride group on the other end provides tetrahydropyran-2-methanol with two reactive sites for reactions with metals. It has been shown to react with metal surfaces in order to form an adduct under acidic conditions that can be used as an ion exchange resin. Tetrahydropyran-2-methanol also reacts rapidly with hydrochloric acid to form tetrahydrothiophene and methanol. This reaction time can be sped up by heating the liquid at atmospheric pressure or by adding sulfuric acid. Tetrahydropyran-2-methanol is also capable of reacting with water in order to produce hydrogen gas and alcohol.
