 |  | Crotonyl alcohol Usage And Synthesis |  
 | Chemical Properties | Clear light yellow liquid |  | Uses | Crotyl alcohol can be used as a starting material in the synthesis of antitumor agents such as 14-azacamptothecin and 10, 11-methylenedioxy-14-azacamptothecin. It can also be used as a precursor in the total synthesis of discodermolide. |  | Uses | Chemical intermediate, source of monomers,
herbicide, and soil fumigant. |  | Definition | ChEBI: A primary alcohol in which the hydroxy function is bonded to a CH3CH2CHCH21 (crotyl) group. |  | Hazard | Toxic by ingestion, strong eye and skin
irritant. Moderate fire risk. |  | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by 
ingestion and skin contact. Mutation data 
reported. Dangerous fire hazard when 
exposed to heat or flame; can react with 
oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use alcohol 
foam, CO2, dry chemical. When heated to 
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and 
fumes. See also ALCOHOLS. |
