  • Applications

    7-Oxabicyclo[4.1.0]heptan-3-ol, 6-methyl-3-(1-methylethyl)- (CAS 58581-03-6) is a compact bicyclic ether alcohol with pronounced ring strain and defined stereochemistry, typically explored as a stereodirecting building block for the synthesis of terpenoid derivatives, pharmaceutical and agrochemical candidates, and functional materials; its oxabicyclic framework is amenable to selective ring-opening, rearrangement, and further functionalization to give diols, ethers, or esters, enabling use as an intermediate to tune polarity, volatility, and odor of target molecules, as a model substrate in mechanistic studies and in optimization of ring-opening or asymmetric catalysis, and as a reference or internal standard in GC/LC-MS method development and laboratory quality control.
