Chemical Structure
Basic Info
1-Hexanol is a simple fatty alcohol with the chemical formula C₆H₁₄O. It consists of six carbon atoms, has a straight-chain structure, and belongs to the class of higher alcohols. 1-Hexanol is a colourless, transparent liquid with a slight alcoholic aroma. It is slightly soluble in water but miscible with most organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Due to its hydrophobicity and low vapour pressure, 1-Hexanol is often used as a solvent in organic synthesis, especially in manufacturing coatings, paints, flavours and fragrances. It can also be used as a component of surfactants, playing a role in applications such as emulsification and wetting.
