2-Aminocyclohexanol (CAS: 109-40-6; Formula: C6H13NO) is a versatile chiral intermediate primarily synthesized via the ring-opening of epichlorohydrin or catalytic hydrogenation of nitrocyclohexane derivatives. It serves as a critical building block in pharmaceutical and agrochemical manufacturing.
Store under inert atmosphere at controlled temperatures below 25°C to prevent oxidation. Personnel must utilize respiratory protection and chemical-resistant gloves due to potential toxicity and skin irritation risks associated with amine exposure.
