Description
4-Methyl-2-pentanol is a branched aliphatic alcohol offered at min. 98 % purity for synthesis applications. The reagent has the empirical formula C₆H₁₄O, CAS number 108-11-2 and EG nr. 203-551-7, with a molar mass of 102,17 g/mol. Physical data include a density of 0,802 g/cm³, a flash point of 41 °C and a boiling point of 132 °C, supporting planning of reaction, distillation and handling steps in organic synthesis. This grade is Chemists use 4-methyl-2-pentanol in route scouting, small-scale transformations and reference preparations that call for reliable assay and transparent specification data. The compact glass unit suits method development and teaching laboratories as well as industrial R&D benches that need controlled quantities without bulk packaging. Clear identity via CAS 108-11-2 and the stated physicochemical parameters help integrate the material into existing SOPs and inventory systems for synthesis chemicals.

Questions about 4-Methyl-2-pentanol, min. 98 %, for synthesis, 100 ml, glass
What is this article?
4-Methyl-2-pentanol, min. 98 %, for synthesis, 100 ml, glass is the article on this page. Luminix Health distributes Carl Roth for laboratory use. It sits in Organic building blocks & synthesis reagents, inside Organic chemicals & synthesis reagents, in Lab chemicals.
A building block is an organic molecule bought to become part of a larger one. The structure, the CAS number and the purity decide it. A 95 percent reagent and a 99.9 percent reagent of the same name leave different impurities in the product. The functional groups are the reason it was chosen.
An organic chemical is built on carbon. In this category it is a building block or a reagent for making another molecule: a starting material, a coupling agent, a polymer, a PEG. Purity is a specification of which impurities remain. The structure, the CAS number and the grade decide whether two bottles are the same substance. Structures and properties are on PubChem. Nomenclature is IUPAC. Classification follows ECHA and the CLP Regulation.
