CAS 21345-28-8
:4'-Ethylbiphenyl-4-ol
Description:
4'-Ethylbiphenyl-4-ol, with the CAS number 21345-28-8, is an organic compound characterized by its biphenyl structure, which consists of two phenyl rings connected by a single bond. The presence of an ethyl group at the para position of one phenyl ring and a hydroxyl (-OH) group at the para position of the other ring contributes to its chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid and is soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature due to the biphenyl backbone. The hydroxyl group introduces some polarity, allowing for potential hydrogen bonding interactions. 4'-Ethylbiphenyl-4-ol may exhibit interesting chemical reactivity, including the ability to participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions due to the electron-donating effects of the ethyl group and the hydroxyl group. It is often studied in the context of organic synthesis and materials science, particularly for its potential applications in the development of liquid crystals and other functional materials.
