View on Grokipedia
from Grokipedia
Crotyl alcohol, also known as 2-buten-1-ol, is an organic compound classified as an unsaturated primary alcohol with the molecular formula C₄H₈O and a molecular weight of 72.11 g/mol. It features a butene chain with a hydroxyl group at the 1-position and a double bond between carbons 2 and 3, existing as (E)- and (Z)-stereoisomers, where the (E)-form is more common in commercial mixtures. At room temperature, it appears as a clear, colorless to light yellow liquid with a boiling point of 121–122 °C, a melting point of approximately −90 °C, a density of 0.845 g/mL at 25 °C, and a refractive index of 1.427. This compound is moderately soluble in water and miscible with most organic solvents, and it is flammable with a flash point of 37 °C. As a versatile chemical intermediate, crotyl alcohol is employed in organic synthesis for producing pharmaceuticals, fragrances, and other fine chemicals, including antitumor agents like 14-azacamptothecin derivatives. It is commercially produced via selective hydrogenation of crotonaldehyde and serves in such hydrogenations to generate allylic alcohols. Additionally, it finds applications in consumer products under regulatory oversight, such as the U.S. EPA's Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA), where it is listed as an active substance. Crotyl alcohol exhibits toxicity, classified as harmful if swallowed or in contact with skin, and it causes irritation to eyes, skin, and respiratory tract; precautionary measures include avoiding ingestion, inhalation, and direct contact. Its reactivity as an allylic alcohol makes it prone to oxidation and addition reactions, contributing to its utility in catalytic processes like selective hydrogenation.

Chemical identity

Nomenclature

Crotyl alcohol, systematically named but-2-en-1-ol, exists as geometric isomers due to the double bond in its structure. The preferred IUPAC name for the trans (E) isomer is (2E)-but-2-en-1-ol, while the cis (Z) isomer is designated (2Z)-but-2-en-1-ol. Commonly referred to as crotyl alcohol, it is also known by names such as crotonyl alcohol, 2-buten-1-ol, and 2-butenol, reflecting its historical usage in organic chemistry. These synonyms emphasize its relation to crotonic acid derivatives and its unsaturated alcohol functionality. The term "crotyl" originates from crotonic acid ((2E)-but-2-enoic acid), which was named in the early 19th century after croton oil extracted from the seeds of the plant Croton tiglium. This naming convention arose during the isolation and study of unsaturated carboxylic acids from natural sources in organic chemistry. As a C₄H₈O compound, crotyl alcohol shares structural isomerism with butanone (methyl ethyl ketone) and other isomers like 1,2-epoxybutane or tetrahydrofuran derivatives, highlighting the diversity of functional groups possible within this molecular formula.

Molecular structure and isomers

Crotyl alcohol has the molecular formula C4H8O and the structural formula CH3CH=CHCH2OH, featuring a primary alcohol group attached to a four-carbon chain with a carbon-carbon double bond between the second and third carbons. This configuration positions the hydroxyl group (-OH) at the end of the chain, making it a primary alcohol, while the alkene is internal and trans or cis disubstituted. The molecule exhibits geometric isomerism due to the double bond, resulting in (E)- and (Z)-isomers, commonly referred to as trans- and cis-crotyl alcohol, respectively. In the (E)-isomer ((E)-2-buten-1-ol), the -CH2OH group (attached to carbon 2) and the methyl group (attached to carbon 3) are on opposite sides of the double bond, minimizing steric interactions. Conversely, the (Z)-isomer ((Z)-2-buten-1-ol) places these substituents on the same side, leading to greater steric hindrance between the methyl and methylene alcohol groups, which reduces its stability relative to the (E)-isomer by approximately 1-3 kJ/mol based on analogous alkene systems. The (E)-isomer is thus more prevalent in equilibrium mixtures and industrial preparations. For precise identification, the (E)-isomer has CAS number 504-61-0, PubChem CID 637922, InChI=1S/C4H8O/c1-2-3-4-5/h2-3,5H,4H2,1H3/b3-2+, and SMILES C/C=C/CO. The (Z)-isomer corresponds to CAS number 4088-60-2, PubChem CID 643789, InChI=1S/C4H8O/c1-2-3-4-5/h2-3,5H,4H2,1H3/b3-2-, and SMILES C/C=C\CO. Crotyl alcohol as a mixture of isomers is assigned EC number 228-086-7.

Physical properties

Appearance and thermodynamic data

Crotyl alcohol appears as a colorless to almost colorless clear liquid at room temperature. Its molar mass is 72.11 g/mol. The compound has a density of 0.845 g/cm³ at 25 °C and a refractive index of 1.427 at 20 °C. It boils at 121–122 °C under standard pressure and has a melting point of approximately -90 °C. The vapor pressure is 1.8 mmHg at 20 °C. Thermodynamic data include a heat of vaporization of approximately 42 kJ/mol.

Solubility and density

Crotyl alcohol displays moderate solubility in water, with a reported value of 166 g/L at 20 °C. It is miscible with organic solvents such as ethanol, diethyl ether, and chloroform. The density of crotyl alcohol is 0.845 g/mL at 25 °C, reflecting its mass-volume relationship under standard conditions. This value may exhibit temperature dependence, though detailed variation data is not extensively documented in primary literature. The molecule's polarity arises from the polar hydroxyl group, which enhances interactions with polar solvents like water, while the non-polar alkene moiety limits solubility in highly non-polar media. Compared to the saturated analog n-butanol (solubility ~73 g/L in water and density 0.810 g/mL at 20 °C), crotyl alcohol demonstrates greater aqueous solubility, likely due to the unsaturation influencing hydrogen bonding and overall hydrophilicity.

Synthesis

Chemical synthesis methods

Crotyl alcohol is primarily synthesized through the selective hydrogenation of crotonaldehyde, targeting the carbonyl group while preserving the carbon-carbon double bond. This reaction is represented by the equation: CH3CH=CHCHO+H2→CH3CH=CHCH2OH\mathrm{CH_3CH=CHCHO + H_2 \rightarrow CH_3CH=CHCH_2OH} The process typically employs heterogeneous catalysts under mild conditions to achieve high selectivity. For instance, iridium catalysts modified with metal oxides, such as Ir-MoO_x/SiO_2 (with a Mo/Ir molar ratio of 1), facilitate the reaction in water at 30°C and 0.8 MPa H_2 pressure, yielding up to 90% crotyl alcohol with a turnover frequency of 217 h⁻¹. The mechanism involves adsorption of crotonaldehyde on the metal oxide component, which activates the C=O bond, followed by hydride transfer from H_2 dissociated on iridium sites. Alternative catalysts, including platinum-tin intermetallic compounds like 1% Pt-1.2Sn/TiO_2, enable liquid-phase hydrogenation with crotonaldehyde conversions exceeding 97% and crotyl alcohol selectivities around 70%. These bimetallic systems promote η¹(O) adsorption of the aldehyde, favoring C=O reduction over C=C hydrogenation. Gas-phase variants using similar catalysts, such as those incorporating n-heptane as a diluent, have also been developed for potential scale-up. Key challenges in these methods include preventing over-reduction to saturated butanol or formation of byproducts like butanal, which requires precise control of catalyst composition and reaction parameters. Selectivity is enhanced by optimizing metal oxide-to-noble metal ratios, as deviations lead to diminished performance. Industrial processes often derive crotonaldehyde from acetaldehyde aldol condensation, linking this synthesis to petroleum-based feedstocks via ethylene oxidation.

Biological production routes

Biological production of crotyl alcohol primarily involves microbial fermentation processes that leverage the reducing power generated from carbohydrate feedstocks to convert crotonic acid into the target alcohol, offering a sustainable alternative to traditional chemical synthesis methods. Thermophilic anaerobic bacteria, such as Thermoanaerobacter uzonensis (DSM 18761) and Thermoanaerobacter pseudethanolicus (DSM 2355), have been demonstrated to produce crotyl alcohol through the biocatalytic reduction of crotonic acid. These organisms utilize native enzymes including aldehyde ferredoxin oxidoreductases (AORs), aldehyde dehydrogenases (ALDHs), and alcohol dehydrogenases (ADHs) to sequentially reduce crotonic acid to crotonaldehyde and then to crotyl alcohol, with glycolysis of glucose or mannitol providing the necessary electrons via reduced ferredoxin and NADH cofactors. The fermentation occurs under anaerobic conditions at 65°C in a mineral medium supplemented with yeast extract, typically over 7 days in small-scale setups or 18 hours in scaled-up bioreactors, with crotonic acid derived from anaerobic digestion of lignocellulosic or organic waste biomass to avoid competition with food resources. Yields in these natural systems are optimized by manipulating the liquid-gas ratio (L-G) to increase hydrogen partial pressure, which inhibits hydrogenase activity and redirects electrons toward alcohol formation, reducing byproducts like acetate and hydrogen. For instance, T. uzonensis achieves a crotyl alcohol concentration of 9.2 mM (46.2% of theoretical yield) from 20 mM glucose and 20 mM crotonic acid at an L-G ratio of 5.6, while T. pseudethanolicus reaches 6.3 mM (31.5% yield) under similar conditions; in a 2.5 L scale-up, the latter produces 1.48 g of isolated crotyl alcohol (41.6% yield) using mannitol as the carbon source. These processes mark the first reported crotyl alcohol production by thermophilic bacteria, extending prior work with hyperthermophilic archaea like Pyrococcus furiosus (17% yield). Recent advancements in the 21st century focus on engineered microorganisms to enhance yields through targeted genetic modifications that minimize crotyl alcohol diversion to unwanted products. In Escherichia coli strains such as K-12 MG1655 and ATCC 8739C, deletions or disruptions in genes encoding alcohol dehydrogenases (e.g., adhE, yqhD, adhP, yahK) and alkene reductases (e.g., nemA) prevent the oxidation of crotyl alcohol to crotonaldehyde or its reduction to butyraldehyde, thereby increasing accumulation. Optional overexpression of crotonaldehyde reductases further boosts conversion efficiency. These engineered strains exhibit improved tolerance to crotyl alcohol concentrations up to 138 mM and 1.1-3 times faster growth rates compared to wild-type parents in inhibitory media, supporting higher titers during fermentation from precursors like acetyl-CoA via pathways involving crotonyl-CoA reductase and crotonaldehyde reductase. Such biological routes provide key advantages over chemical synthesis, including lower energy requirements due to thermophilic operation that integrates hydrolysis, fermentation, and distillation without extensive cooling or sterilization, as well as reduced byproduct formation and utilization of non-toxic, self-generated cofactors from renewable feedstocks. Co-production with ethanol further improves economic viability for second-generation biofuels from waste biomass.

Chemical reactivity

Allylic rearrangements and additions

Crotyl alcohol, or (E/Z)-but-2-en-1-ol, exhibits characteristic reactivity as an allylic alcohol, undergoing rearrangements and additions that leverage the adjacency of its hydroxyl group and carbon-carbon double bond. In acidic media, it participates in allylic isomerization, converting to its isomeric form, but-3-en-2-ol (1-methylallyl alcohol), via an SN1'-type mechanism involving an allylic carbocation intermediate. This process is catalyzed by protonation of the hydroxyl group, forming an oxonium ion that facilitates 1,3-migration of the positive charge across the allylic system, leading to equilibration between the primary and secondary alcohols. For instance, treatment with 1% sulfuric acid at 95°C for 5 hours establishes an equilibrium mixture, highlighting the low oxotropic mobility of simple alkyl-substituted allylic alcohols. In crotylation reactions, crotyl alcohol serves as a crotyl donor for nucleophilic addition to carbonyl compounds, particularly aldehydes, to produce homoallylic alcohols. A notable method involves palladium-catalyzed allylation in the presence of SnCl₂, where crotyl alcohol transmetalates to form an allyltin(IV) intermediate that adds to the carbonyl, yielding products such as 1-phenylpent-3-en-1-ol from benzaldehyde. This reaction proceeds in polar solvents, with water addition enhancing anti diastereoselectivity through stabilization of the transition state. The mechanism features oxidative addition of the allylic system to Pd(0), followed by transmetalation and reductive elimination, preserving the alcohol functionality while extending the carbon skeleton. Electrophilic additions to the double bond of crotyl alcohol typically occur with allylic rearrangement, as seen in hydrohalogenation reactions. For example, reaction with HBr generates a mixture of 1-bromobut-2-ene (primary) and 3-bromobut-1-ene (secondary allylic bromide), reflecting attack at both resonant forms of the delocalized carbocation. This preserves the hydroxyl group unless further dehydration occurs, and the addition follows Markovnikov regiochemistry influenced by the allylic stabilization. The E and Z isomers of crotyl alcohol exhibit distinct stereoselectivity in these transformations. In crotylation, the E-isomer predominantly affords anti homoallylic alcohols via a chair-like transition state with equatorial substituents, while the Z-isomer favors syn products through a similar but geometrically constrained pathway. This diastereodivergence enables stereocontrolled synthesis, with isomer purity directly impacting product ratios in additions and rearrangements.

Oxidation and reduction reactions

Crotyl alcohol undergoes selective oxidation primarily through dehydrogenation to crotonaldehyde, a process facilitated by palladium-based catalysts. Over a Pd(111) single-crystal surface, crotyl alcohol adsorbs nondissociatively at low temperatures (95 K) and activates via an allyl alkoxide intermediate, yielding crotonaldehyde with approximately 90% selectivity above 200 K, following the reaction: CH3CH=CHCH2OH→CH3CH=CHCHO+H2\mathrm{CH_3CH=CHCH_2OH \rightarrow CH_3CH=CHCHO + H_2} This step is rate-limited by C-H and O-H bond cleavage, with an activation energy of 52 kJ mol⁻¹, and coadsorbed oxygen suppresses subsequent decarbonylation, promoting crotonaldehyde desorption at 215 K under ultrahigh vacuum conditions mimicking aerobic catalysis. Full hydrogenation of crotyl alcohol saturates the C=C double bond to produce n-butanol, often observed as a sequential step in broader catalytic processes over silver or palladium surfaces. On Ag(111), high hydrogen coverage induces a shift in the adsorbed geometry of crotyl alcohol from tilted to flat-lying, enhancing vulnerability to C=C reduction and yielding butanol alongside other products like butyraldehyde, with selectivities up to 95% toward unsaturated intermediates under temperature-programmed conditions but decreasing at elevated coverages. Electrochemical oxidation of crotyl alcohol on platinum electrodes in acidic media (0.5 M H₂SO₄) initiates at 0.70 V (RHE), producing crotonaldehyde and CO₂ as detected by differential electrochemical mass spectrometry (DEMS) and in situ Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIRS), with adsorbed species forming linear CO intermediates at potentials above 0.25 V. Reduction occurs below 0.05 V (RHE), involving massive hydrogenation and fragmentation to C₄ hydrocarbons such as butane and 2-butene, alongside lower hydrocarbons, confirmed by on-line gas analysis. Biocatalytic oxidation employs enzymes like the NADP⁺-dependent allylic/benzyl alcohol dehydrogenase (YsADH) from Yokenella sp. WZY002, a zinc-containing homodimer that converts crotyl alcohol to crotonaldehyde at pH 8.0 and 55°C with a specific activity of 79.9 U mg⁻¹ and K_m of 9.1 mM, achieving over 96% yield in whole-cell systems supplemented with glucose to mitigate side reactions. The allylic position of the hydroxyl group in crotyl alcohol confers stability under oxidative conditions, enabling high selectivity toward crotonaldehyde without significant over-oxidation to carboxylic acids, as evidenced by minimal CO₂ evolution in Pd-catalyzed systems and controlled product profiles in enzymatic reactions.

Applications

Role in organic synthesis

Crotyl alcohol serves as a key precursor in laboratory-scale organic synthesis, particularly for generating crotyl nucleophiles that enable stereoselective carbon-carbon bond formations. Its unsaturated structure facilitates the preparation of organometallic reagents used in allylation and crotylation reactions, allowing chemists to construct complex homoallylic alcohol frameworks essential for natural product synthesis. One prominent application is in carbonyl crotylation, where crotyl alcohol-derived reagents react with aldehydes to produce β-methylhomoallylic alcohols with high stereocontrol. In Brown's crotylboration, developed in the 1980s, chiral B-crotyldiisopinocampheylborane reagents—prepared from crotyl alcohol via crotylmagnesium bromide and diisopinocampheylborane chloride—are added to aldehydes at low temperatures, such as -78 °C, to afford syn or anti diastereomers depending on the E or Z geometry of the crotyl unit. This method proceeds through a chair-like Zimmerman-Traxler transition state, achieving diastereoselectivities often exceeding 95:5 and enantioselectivities up to 98% ee, making it invaluable for installing propionate motifs in polyketides like erythromycin A. Chiral auxiliaries, such as diisopinocampheyl groups, ensure facial selectivity, with the (E)-crotyl reagent favoring anti products and the (Z)-isomer yielding syn adducts. Complementary approaches, like Roush's tartrate-based crotylboronates from the late 1980s, offer alternative stereochemical outcomes using similar crotyl alcohol precursors. The evolution of these allylation methods since the 1980s reflects a shift from stoichiometric chiral reagents to more efficient catalytic systems, building on foundational crotylboration techniques. Hoffmann's 1978 chiral allylboronate laid groundwork, but Brown's 1983–1986 innovations with allyl- and crotyldiisopinocampheylboranes marked a breakthrough in enantioselective carbonyl additions, inspiring catalytic variants like Yamamoto's Lewis acid-mediated allylations in 1991. By the 1990s, efforts focused on reducing metal loading, with Keck and Denmark developing BINOL- and silane-catalyzed protocols, while crotylation retained reliance on preformed crotyl donors derived from crotyl alcohol for precise diastereocontrol. This progression has enabled site-selective crotylations in polyols, enhancing synthetic efficiency for polyketide fragments without protecting groups. Crotyl alcohol also plays a role in preparing diazoacetate esters for cyclopropanation reactions. A standard procedure involves esterification of crotyl alcohol with the p-toluenesulfonylhydrazone chloride of glyoxylic acid in the presence of triethylamine, yielding crotyl diazoacetate in 42–55% distilled yield as a yellow liquid. This diazo compound serves as a carbene precursor in metal-catalyzed cyclopropanations, facilitating the construction of cyclopropane rings in natural product analogs through decomposition with rhodium or copper catalysts. Procedures from Organic Syntheses exemplify these synthetic utilities, such as the preparation of (S,S)-diisopropyl tartrate (E)-crotylboronate from crotylpotassium and its stereoselective addition to aldehydes like D-glyceraldehyde acetonide, yielding anti-homoallylic alcohols with >98:2 diastereoselectivity in 66% isolated yield. These methods underscore crotyl alcohol's versatility in enabling asymmetric syntheses central to medicinal chemistry.

Industrial and commercial uses

Crotyl alcohol exhibits limited industrial and commercial applications, primarily as a chemical intermediate in fine chemical production rather than a high-volume commodity. It serves as a building block for synthesizing pharmaceuticals, including antitumor agents such as 14-azacamptothecin and discodermolide precursors, leveraging its allylic structure for derivative formation. In fragrance manufacturing, selective hydrogenation of crotonaldehyde to crotyl alcohol provides an unsaturated alcohol intermediate valued for its role in producing aroma compounds. Biological production routes position crotyl alcohol as a potential renewable intermediate in biofuel pathways, where it forms during the conversion of bioethanol to higher-value chemicals like 1,3-butadiene through dehydration steps. This aligns with efforts to derive sustainable alcohols from biomass feedstocks, though scalability remains a challenge. Market data reflects low commercial volumes, with global supply dominated by specialty chemical providers such as Sigma-Aldrich and Tokyo Chemical Industry, who offer it primarily for research and niche synthesis at lab-to-pilot scales. Pricing typically ranges from $50–$200 per 100g, underscoring its status as a low-demand intermediate. Emerging research highlights crotyl alcohol's utility in selective oxidation catalysis, such as epoxidation with hydrogen peroxide over titanium silicalite catalysts, to produce epoxy alcohols for advanced chemical manufacturing. These developments aim to enhance efficient, green synthesis of allylic derivatives for industrial processes.

Safety and hazards

Toxicity and health effects

Crotyl alcohol demonstrates moderate acute toxicity through ingestion and dermal exposure. The median lethal dose (LD50) for oral administration in rats is 793 mg/kg, while the dermal LD50 in rabbits is 1084 mg/kg, indicating potential harm from swallowing or skin contact. It is also irritating to the skin and eyes upon direct contact, with symptoms including redness, pain, and possible corneal damage. Under the Globally Harmonized System (GHS) of classification, crotyl alcohol is labeled with hazard statements H302 (harmful if swallowed) and H312 (harmful in contact with skin), reflecting its acute toxicity category 4 status for both routes. Additional classifications include H315 (causes skin irritation), H319 (causes serious eye irritation), and H335 (may cause respiratory irritation), based on notifications under the Classification, Labelling and Packaging (CLP) regulation. These effects underscore the need for protective measures during handling to prevent irritation or systemic absorption. Regarding chronic effects, long-term exposure is not expected to produce adverse health outcomes in animal models, though data remain limited. However, crotyl alcohol shows borderline mutagenic potential in bacterial assays, suggesting a possible risk for genetic damage with prolonged exposure, as predicted under REACH Annex III criteria. No specific occupational exposure limits have been established by major regulatory bodies such as OSHA or NIOSH.

Flammability and environmental impact

Crotyl alcohol is classified as a flammable liquid under the Globally Harmonized System (GHS), with the hazard statement H226 indicating "Flammable liquid and vapour." Its flash point is 37 °C, making it susceptible to ignition at relatively low temperatures. For transportation, it is assigned UN number 1993 as a flammable liquid, n.o.s. (not otherwise specified), with packing group III, denoting substances of low danger. Proper handling and storage are essential to mitigate fire risks. Crotyl alcohol should be kept away from heat, hot surfaces, sparks, open flames, and other ignition sources, with no smoking permitted in the vicinity (precautionary statement P210). Containers must be tightly closed and grounded to prevent static discharge, and explosion-proof equipment should be used during transfer (P233, P240, P241). It is recommended to store the compound in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area, separated from strong oxidizers, in a designated flammables storage cabinet (P403+P235). Regarding environmental impact, crotyl alcohol exhibits low persistence due to its volatility and relatively high vapor pressure, facilitating rapid dissipation into the atmosphere. Specific data on biodegradability are limited. Specific data on aquatic toxicity are limited, with no established GHS classification for environmental hazards, suggesting minimal long-term ecological risk under typical exposure scenarios. In the event of a spill, immediate actions include eliminating all ignition sources and ventilating the area to disperse vapors. The liquid should be absorbed using inert materials such as vermiculite, sand, or earth, then placed in suitable containers for disposal in accordance with local regulations. Personal protective equipment, including gloves and eye protection, must be worn during cleanup to avoid contact.
