HO-C(CH2OH)3 / Tetrahydroxyisobutane / isobutantetrol


Hi to all,
I'm looking for infos about HO-C(CH2OH)3 / Tetrahydroxyisobutane / isobutantetrol.
Despite hard looking for it I have found no info on that stuff.
I'm looking after density datas

It seems interesting to me because it is a compound that should diplay a higher density than pentaerythritol. And it is a missing link into my research on polyols.

I have found infos on parent molecule

1,2,3,3'-Tetrachloroisobutane;1,2,3-Trichloro-2-(chloromethyl)propane; 2-(Chloromethyl)-1,2,3-trichloropropane
Molecular Formula: C4H6 Cl4
CAS: 18963-00-3
Refractive index: 1.481
Flash Point: 81.9°C
Molecular Weight: 195.9024
Density: 1.397g/cm3
Boiling Point: 209.3°Cat760mmHg

This must be compared to PETC (pentaerythritol tetrachloride)

Propane,1,3-dichloro-2,2-bis(chloromethyl)-; Pentaerythrityl tetrachloride ; Tetrakis(chloromethyl)methane
CAS No. 3228-99-7
Molecular Formula: C5H8Cl4
Molecular Weight: 209.93
Boiling Point: 233.3 °C at 760 mmHg
Flash Point: 94.8 °C
Appearance: light beige fluffy powder
Density: 1.34 g/cm3

Of interest derivated explosive molecules:
-tetranitrate ester
O2N-O-C(-CH2-O-NO2)3

-tetranitramine
O2N-NH-C(-CH2-NH-NO2)3

-tetramine and anionic oxydants
H2N-C(-CH2-NH2)3. 4HY
(With Y = NO3, ClO4, IO4, IO3, N(NO2)2, C(NO2)3)

-tetranitro
O2N-C(-CH2-NO2)3

-tetraazido
3N-C(-CH2-N3)3

-tetrahydrazine and anionic oxydants
H2N-NH-C(-CH2-NH-NH2)3. 4HY
H2N-NH-C(-CH2-NH-NH2)3. 8HZ
(With Y = NO3, ClO4, IO4, IO3, N(NO2)2, C(NO2)3)
(With Z = NO3, ClO4)

If you search on hydroxymethylglycerol there are plenty of references.
I had a look and found lots that were not very useful :(
