CAS 5472-13-9: 2-Methylbenzhydrol
Description:2-Methylbenzhydrol, also known as 2-methyl-1,2-diphenylethanol, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a benzene ring substituted with a hydroxyl group and a methyl group. It is classified as a secondary alcohol due to the presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to a carbon that is also bonded to two other carbon atoms. This compound typically appears as a white to off-white crystalline solid and is sparingly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents like ethanol and ether. 2-Methylbenzhydrol exhibits properties typical of alcohols, including the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which influences its boiling and melting points. It is often used in organic synthesis and may serve as an intermediate in the production of various pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. Additionally, its chemical reactivity allows it to undergo oxidation and other transformations, making it a valuable compound in synthetic organic chemistry. Safety precautions should be observed when handling this substance, as with many organic chemicals.
