2-Amino-1-(3-methylphenyl)ethanol

Description:
2-Amino-1-(3-methylphenyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 53360-88-6, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of an amino group (-NH2) and a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a two-carbon ethyl chain, along with a 3-methylphenyl group. This structure classifies it as an amino alcohol. The compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and form. It is soluble in water and various organic solvents, which is indicative of its polar functional groups. The presence of the amino group allows for potential interactions such as hydrogen bonding, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including as a building block in pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the 3-methylphenyl substituent can influence its biological activity and lipophilicity. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with many organic compounds, it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
