Description:5-Propylbenzene-1,3-diol, also known as 5-propylresorcinol, is an organic compound characterized by a benzene ring substituted with two hydroxyl (–OH) groups at the 1 and 3 positions and a propyl group at the 5 position. This compound is a type of diol, which means it contains two hydroxyl functional groups, contributing to its potential reactivity and solubility properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. The presence of hydroxyl groups allows for hydrogen bonding, which can enhance its solubility in polar solvents. 5-Propylbenzene-1,3-diol may exhibit antioxidant properties and has applications in various fields, including cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, due to its potential skin-beneficial effects. Additionally, it may be involved in chemical synthesis processes or serve as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
Applications 5-Propylbenzene-1,3-diol is an intermediate used to prepare Cannabigerovarin (C175140) which stimulates thermosensitive transient receptor …
