3-Bromo-4-hydroxybenzenemethanol

Description:

3-Bromo-4-hydroxybenzenemethanol, also known as 3-bromo-4-(hydroxymethyl)phenol, is an organic compound characterized by its bromine and hydroxymethyl functional groups attached to a phenolic structure. The presence of the bromine atom introduces a halogen, which can influence the compound's reactivity and solubility in various solvents. The hydroxymethyl group contributes to its potential as a phenolic compound, which may exhibit antioxidant properties and can participate in various chemical reactions, such as nucleophilic substitutions. This compound is typically a solid at room temperature and may have moderate solubility in polar solvents due to the hydroxyl group. Its applications may include use in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety data should be consulted, as brominated compounds can pose health risks, including toxicity and environmental concerns. Proper handling and disposal procedures are essential when working with this substance in a laboratory or industrial setting.

3-Bromo-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol

CAS: 29922-56-3

3-Bromo-4-hydroxybenzyl alcohol (3BHA) is a synthetic compound that is used as an antagonist in the treatment of platelet aggregation. It inhibits the activity of benzoxazine, an enzyme involved in the synthesis of 4-hydroxybenzoic acid. 3BHA blocks this pathway at high concentrations, inhibiting biosynthesis and leading to the accumulation of bromophenols. This inhibition may explain why aspirin has a potent inhibitory effect on platelet aggregation when combined with 3BHA.
