In the dynamic landscape of chemical manufacturing, certain compounds stand out due to their versatility and critical role in various industries. 1-Ethylcyclopentanol, identified by its CAS number 1462-96-0, is one such compound. As a leading pharmaceutical intermediate manufacturer in China, NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is proud to offer this high-quality cyclic alcohol, essential for numerous applications.

1-Ethylcyclopentanol, also known by synonyms such as 1-Ethyl-1-cyclopentanol, is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a molecular formula of C7H14O and a molecular weight of approximately 114.19 g/mol. Its physical properties, including a boiling point around 153-154°C and a density of 0.909 g/mL at 25°C, make it a manageable and valuable reagent in organic synthesis.

The synthesis of 1-Ethylcyclopentanol is typically achieved through the reaction of a Grignard reagent, like ethylmagnesium iodide, with cyclopentanone. This process results in the formation of a tertiary alcohol and is efficient for industrial-scale production. This reliable synthesis pathway ensures a consistent supply for demanding applications.

The primary utility of 1-Ethylcyclopentanol lies in its role as a building block for cyclopentanol derivatives. These derivatives are crucial intermediates in the production of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and flavors. For instance, in the pharmaceutical sector, it contributes to the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), underscoring its importance in drug development.

Beyond pharmaceuticals, 1-Ethylcyclopentanol finds application in the agrochemical industry for creating pesticides and herbicides. Furthermore, its pleasant aroma profile lends itself to the flavor and fragrance industry, where it is used in perfumes, cosmetics, and food flavorings to impart specific olfactory characteristics. This versatility highlights its economic significance and broad industrial reach.
