2-Cyclopentylphenol is an organic compound characterized by a phenolic structure with a cyclopentyl group attached to the second carbon of the benzene ring. Its molecular formula is C12H14O, indicating the presence of 12 carbon atoms, 14 hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. It is known for its moderate solubility in organic solvents and limited solubility in water, which is common for phenolic compounds. 2-Cyclopentylphenol exhibits properties typical of phenols, including the ability to act as an antioxidant and a potential intermediate in organic synthesis. It may also possess antimicrobial properties, making it of interest in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Safety data indicates that, like many phenolic compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential irritant effects on skin and eyes. Proper storage and handling protocols are essential to ensure safety in laboratory and industrial settings.
