Benzeneethanol, a-(aminomethyl)-

Description:
Benzeneethanol, α-(aminomethyl)-, also known as phenethylamine, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of both an aromatic benzene ring and an alcohol functional group. It features an amino group (-NH2) attached to a carbon chain that connects to the benzene ring, making it a primary amine. This compound is typically colorless to pale yellow and has a relatively low molecular weight. It is soluble in water and organic solvents, which is common for compounds containing both hydrophilic (the alcohol and amine groups) and hydrophobic (the benzene ring) characteristics. Benzeneethanol, α-(aminomethyl)- is often used in various chemical syntheses and can serve as a precursor for pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. Its reactivity is influenced by the presence of the amino and hydroxyl groups, allowing it to participate in a range of chemical reactions, including alkylation and acylation. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
