(-)-Catechol

Description:

(-)-Catechol, also known as 1,2-dihydroxybenzene, is an aromatic organic compound characterized by the presence of two hydroxyl groups (-OH) attached to a benzene ring. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a sweet, aromatic odor and is soluble in water, alcohol, and ether. The compound exhibits a melting point around room temperature and has a boiling point that varies depending on atmospheric pressure. (-)-Catechol is known for its antioxidant properties and is used in various applications, including as a precursor in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. It also plays a role in the production of certain polymers and resins. The compound can undergo oxidation to form quinones and is sensitive to light and air, which can lead to its degradation. In terms of safety, (-)-Catechol can be irritating to the skin and eyes, and appropriate precautions should be taken when handling it in laboratory or industrial settings.
