Description:
5-Chloro-2-methylphenol, with the CAS number 5306-98-9, is an organic compound that belongs to the class of chlorinated phenols. It is characterized by a phenolic structure with a chlorine atom and a methyl group attached to the aromatic ring. This compound typically appears as a white to light yellow solid and has a distinct odor. It is slightly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents, reflecting its hydrophobic nature. 5-Chloro-2-methylphenol exhibits antimicrobial properties, making it useful in various applications, including as a preservative in cosmetics and personal care products, as well as in industrial settings for its biocidal effects. The compound's reactivity is influenced by the presence of the chlorine and methyl substituents, which can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Safety considerations are important when handling this substance, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled, and appropriate precautions should be taken to minimize exposure.
