2'-HYDROXYMETHYL-BIPHENYL-2-CARBOXYLIC ACID

Description:
2'-Hydroxymethyl-biphenyl-2-carboxylic acid, with the CAS number 18773-63-2, is an organic compound characterized by its biphenyl structure, which consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond. The presence of a hydroxymethyl group (-CH2OH) at the 2' position and a carboxylic acid group (-COOH) at the 2 position contributes to its chemical reactivity and solubility properties. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid and is soluble in polar solvents due to the hydrophilic nature of the hydroxymethyl and carboxylic acid functional groups. It may exhibit acidic behavior due to the carboxylic acid group, which can donate protons in solution. Additionally, the biphenyl framework may impart certain stability and hydrophobic characteristics, influencing its interactions in biological systems or chemical reactions. This compound may be of interest in various fields, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and materials science, due to its potential applications in synthesis and as a building block for more complex molecules.
