CAS 53360-85-3

α-(Aminomethyl)-4-methylbenzenemethanol

Description:

α-(Aminomethyl)-4-methylbenzenemethanol, also known by its CAS number 53360-85-3, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an amino group and a hydroxymethyl group attached to a substituted aromatic ring. This compound features a benzene ring with a methyl group at the para position relative to the hydroxymethyl group, which contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics. The amino group imparts basic properties, allowing it to participate in various chemical reactions, including nucleophilic substitutions and condensation reactions. The presence of both the amino and hydroxymethyl groups makes this compound a potential candidate for applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as a building block in organic synthesis. Its solubility in polar solvents is influenced by the hydroxymethyl group, while the aromatic structure provides stability and potential for further functionalization. Safety data should be consulted for handling and storage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
