2-BENZYLOXY-1,3-PROPANEDIOL

Description:

2-Benzyloxy-1,3-propanediol is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a propanediol backbone with a benzyl ether substituent. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic benzyl group. The presence of hydroxyl groups in its structure contributes to its potential as a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. Additionally, 2-benzyloxy-1,3-propanediol may exhibit various functional properties, including potential antioxidant activity and the ability to participate in chemical reactions such as etherification or esterification. Safety data indicates that, like many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, using appropriate personal protective equipment to avoid skin and eye contact. Overall, its unique structural features make it a valuable compound in chemical research and industrial applications.
