    (Benzyloxy)methanol

    CAS:
    (Benzyloxy)methanol is a reactive chemical substance that can be found in wastewater. It can cause irritation to the skin and eyes, and may also have some neurotoxic effects. (Benzyloxy)methanol has been shown to be a mutagenic agent and an endocrine disruptor. It is also known to react with other chemicals in the environment, such as malic acid, or aliphatic hydrocarbons like detergents, which can produce hazardous by-products. These reactions are often synergistic and may lead to serious health risks for humans, animals, and the environment. The International Agency for Research on Cancer classifies (benzyloxy)methanol as a Group 2B carcinogen: "possibly carcinogenic to humans."
