Description:
3-Chloro-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol, with the CAS number 14503-45-8, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a benzene ring substituted with a chlorine atom and a methoxy group, as well as a hydroxyl group. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the presence of the hydroxyl group. The chlorine substituent can influence its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and coupling reactions. The methoxy group can also enhance the compound's lipophilicity and influence its biological activity. 3-Chloro-4-methoxybenzyl alcohol may be used in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other fine chemicals, and its properties make it of interest in medicinal chemistry and material science. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
