Hex-5-en-1-ol is an alcohol entry in the catalogue: CAS 821-41-0, C6H12O, molecular weight 100.16.
As a free alcohol it can be protected, activated as a leaving group or oxidised one step short of the acid, and the choice is usually decided by what has to survive afterwards.
The formula C6H12O resolves to 6 carbons with one oxygen. Short-chain entries of this size are volatile enough that headspace and packing matter: the lot is shipped in sealed units and opened in a fume hood.
Handling and storage
Alcohols of this size are hygroscopic. Where the step is moisture sensitive the lot is dried over a molecular sieve before charging.
Ordering
The unit weights held are 1kg / 25kg / 100kg. A split shipment across two of those sizes is treated as one lot and one certificate. Where a specification has to be met on paper before shipment, it is agreed in writing and the lot is qualified against it rather than against the catalogue text.
