2,5-Hexanediol is an organic compound with the formula CH3CH(OH)CH2CH2CH(OH)CH3. It is both a glycol and a secondary alcohol.[1] It is a colorless water-soluble viscous liquid.[2][3][4] The chemical properties are well understood and have been extensively reported and studied.[5] It has the IUPAC name of hexane-2,5-diol[6] and the CAS Registry Number CAS 2935-44-6.[7]
Other names
[edit]- (2R,5R)-2,5-hexanediol
- 2,5-Dihydroxyhexane
- Diisopropanol
- Hexan-2,5-diol
- [R-(R*,R*)]-2,5-hexanediol
- hexane-2,5-diol
Manufacture
[edit]One common method of manufacture of the compound is from yeast.[8] Another method involves the reduction of acetonylacetone.[9] The material has two chiral carbons and thus has a number of enantiomers. Processes have been researched and developed to produce enantiopure products and by a continuous process.[10][11] Some synthesis has been carried out from keto hexanoates.[12]
Uses
[edit]One of the uses of the material is to synthesize polyesters.[13] and also fine chemicals.[14]
Toxicity
[edit]The toxicity of the material has been studied and is reasonably well understood.[15][16][17][18] It can affect the eyes and has some neurotoxic effects.[19]
