Cyclopropanol is an organic chemical compound from the group of cycloalkanols . It contains a cyclopropyl group with a hydroxyl group . Due to the three-membered ring, the compound is very unstable and quickly undergoes ring-opening reactions. Cyclopropanol is susceptible to rearrangement ( isomerization ) to propanal :

Rearrangement of cyclopropanol





Extraction and presentation

Cyclopropanol can be obtained by reacting ethyl magnesium bromide with epichlorohydrin . Derivatives of the compound can be prepared by the Kulinkovich reaction . Biosynthesis from cyclopropane and other synthetic routes are also known.
