4-Chlorobenzeneethanol

Description:

4-Chlorobenzeneethanol, also known as p-chlorobenzyl alcohol, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a chlorobenzene ring attached to a primary alcohol functional group. Its molecular structure consists of a benzene ring substituted with a chlorine atom at the para position relative to the hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH). This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is moderately soluble in water and more soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its amphiphilic nature due to the hydrophilic alcohol group and the hydrophobic aromatic ring. 4-Chlorobenzeneethanol exhibits properties such as being a potential intermediate in organic synthesis and having applications in the production of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other chemical compounds. Additionally, it may possess antimicrobial properties, making it of interest in various industrial applications. As with many chlorinated compounds, it is important to handle it with care due to potential toxicity and environmental concerns.

4-Chlorophenethyl alcohol

CAS: 1875-88-3

4-Chlorophenethyl alcohol is a synthetic, primary alcohol. It can be synthesized by reacting 2,4-dichlorobenzoic acid with a Grignard reagent. The reaction produces 4-chlorophenethyl alcohol, which is insoluble in water and reacts with chloride to form chloroform. This procedure can be used to produce other chlorinated alcohols. 4-Chlorophenethyl alcohol has been shown to have acute toxicities that are similar to those of trifluoroacetic acid and it is believed that the toxicity is due to its ability to react with proteins and nucleic acids.
