3,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol - Introduction
3,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol is an organic compound with the molecular formula C8H16O and the structural formula (CH3)2CHC6H11OH. The following is a description of its nature, use, formulation and safety information:
Nature:
-Appearance: colorless liquid
-Solubility: Soluble in most organic solvents such as ethanol, ether and benzene
-Boiling point: about 204-206 degrees Celsius
-Density: approx. 0.86g/cm³
Use:
- 3,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol can be used as a starting material for chemical synthesis and can be used to synthesize other organic compounds
-It can also be used as a solvent, especially suitable for the dissolution of fatty acids, ketones and esters
-Used as an additive in some pharmaceuticals and spices
Preparation Method:
- 3,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol is usually prepared from octane. First, the hydrocracking of octane is catalyzed by an acidic catalyst to generate cyclohexane
-Then cyclohexane is subjected to oxidation, cyclodextrin inclusion, distillation and purification, and finally 3,4-Dimethylcyclohexanol is prepared
