For R&D scientists and product formulators, a deep understanding of a chemical's properties is fundamental to successful application. 2-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-propanol (CAS 100-86-7), also known widely as Dimethyl Benzyl Carbinol, is a compound whose chemical characteristics make it highly valuable across several industries, primarily in fragrance and flavor creation.
From a chemical perspective, 2-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-propanol is an organic compound with the molecular formula C10H14O and a molecular weight of 150.22 g/mol. It presents as a white crystalline powder with a low melting point of 23-25 °C, meaning it can easily become a colorless to light yellow liquid under ambient or slightly elevated temperatures. This physical property aids in its incorporation into various formulations.
The synthesis of 2-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-propanol typically involves a Grignard reaction between benzylmagnesium chloride and acetone, a common and efficient route for producing such tertiary alcohols. This method, employed by manufacturers like ourselves, ensures a high level of purity, commonly exceeding 99.00%, which is critical for its intended applications in sensitive fragrance and flavor compositions.
A key attribute contributing to its widespread use is its stability. 2-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-propanol is notably stable in alkaline conditions, making it an ideal choice for products like soaps and detergents where pH can be a limiting factor for other aroma chemicals. Its fragrance profile is described as clean, floral, and herbaceous, often compared to lilac, offering a fresh and sophisticated scent that blends well with many other fragrance components.
For B2B buyers, understanding these specifications is crucial for effective product development. As a dedicated China manufacturer, we provide detailed technical data, including density (0.974 g/mL at 25 °C) and solubility (slightly soluble in water, soluble in alcohol), to aid your formulation process. When you consider purchasing 2-Methyl-1-phenyl-2-propanol, partnering with a supplier that offers consistent quality and comprehensive technical support is paramount. We invite you to explore the potential of this versatile chemical and how it can enhance your product portfolio. Inquire about bulk purchase options and pricing from our experienced sales team.
