CAS 131271-19-7: Benzenemethanol, 4-chloro-3-methyl-

Description: Benzenemethanol, 4-chloro-3-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with a chloromethyl group and a methyl group. The presence of the chlorine atom at the para position relative to the hydroxymethyl group and the methyl group at the meta position contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on the temperature and purity. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate polarity due to the hydroxymethyl functional group. The compound may participate in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic aromatic substitution and nucleophilic reactions, owing to the reactivity of the chlorine atom. Additionally, it may have applications in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals or agrochemicals. Safety data should be consulted, as halogenated compounds can pose health and environmental risks.
