2-Amino-2-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol

Description:
2-Amino-2-(4-methylphenyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 157142-48-8, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an amino group and a hydroxyl group attached to a carbon chain. This compound features a secondary amine due to the presence of two carbon substituents on the nitrogen atom, and it has a phenolic structure due to the para-methyl substitution on the aromatic ring. The molecular structure contributes to its potential as a chiral building block in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical applications. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The compound is soluble in polar solvents, such as water and alcohols, due to the hydroxyl group, which enhances its hydrogen bonding capabilities. Its properties may include moderate to high boiling points and moderate stability under standard conditions. As with many amines and alcohols, it may exhibit basicity and can participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and condensation reactions. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as it may pose health risks.
