FARNESOL Usage And Synthesis
Chemical Properties colourless liquid with a floral odour
General Description Colorless liquid with a delicate floral odor.
Reactivity Profile Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides.
