| | 5-Methyl-1-hexanol Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | Isoheptyl alcohol is a colorless liquid. | | Uses | A major use is in producing ester
compounds, such as phthalate plasticizers and esters of
dicarboxylic acids. Isoheptyl alcohols are also used as
solvents or solubilizers in the paint and printing inks, as
components in textile auxiliaries and pesticides, for hormone
extraction, and in the surfactant field as foam boosters or
antifrothing agents. | | Production Methods | Isoheptyl alcohol is produced in the oxo process by reacting
hexenes with carbon monoxide and hydrogen, followed by
hydrogenation. The commercial product typically consists
of methyl-1-hexanols. | | Toxics Screening Level | The initial threshold screening level (ITSL) for C 6-8 branched alcohols is 13 μg/m3 with annual averaging time. |
