3-Methyloxetan-3-ol, with the CAS number 162816-08-2, is a cyclic organic compound characterized by its oxetane ring structure, which is a four-membered cyclic ether. The presence of a hydroxyl group (-OH) at the 3-position of the oxetane ring contributes to its classification as an alcohol. This compound is typically colorless and may exhibit a mild odor. It is soluble in polar solvents due to the hydroxyl group, which enhances its ability to engage in hydrogen bonding. The presence of the methyl group at the 3-position introduces steric effects that can influence its reactivity and physical properties. 3-Methyloxetan-3-ol may be of interest in various chemical applications, including as a potential intermediate in organic synthesis or in the development of specialty chemicals. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by factors such as temperature and the presence of other functional groups. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as its specific toxicity and environmental impact may not be fully characterized.
