Definition

ChEBI: A secondary alcohol that is cyclohexanol substituted by two methyl groups at the 3-position and one methyl group at the 5-position. It exhibits inhibitory activity against HMG-CoA reductase ( EC 1.1.1.34/EC 1.1.1.88).

Preparation

By complete hydrogenation of isophorone (Arctander, 1969).

Synthesis Reference(s)

Tetrahedron, 37, p. 1171, 1981 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4020(01)92046-0

Hazard

Toxic by inhalation, strong irritant.

Synthesis

Trimethyl cyclohexanol is synthesized by complete hydrogenation of isoPhorone. Dehydration of the title material with Zinc chloride yields alpha-Cyclogeraniolene.
