2-(α-Methylbenzyl)phenol

Description:
2-(α-Methylbenzyl)phenol, with the CAS number 4237-44-9, is an organic compound characterized by its phenolic structure, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring. This compound features an α-methylbenzyl group, indicating that a methyl group is attached to the benzyl moiety, influencing its chemical properties and reactivity. It is typically a white to light yellow solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts acidity and allows for hydrogen bonding, which can affect its solubility and interaction with other substances. This compound may exhibit antioxidant properties and is often studied for its potential applications in various fields, including pharmaceuticals and materials science. Additionally, its structural characteristics suggest that it could participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions, making it a versatile intermediate in organic synthesis.
