1,4-Naphthalenedimethanol

Description:
1,4-Naphthalenedimethanol, with the CAS number 57322-45-9, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features two hydroxymethyl groups (-CH2OH) attached to the naphthalene ring at the 1 and 4 positions. This compound is typically a white to off-white solid at room temperature and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and acetone, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic naphthalene backbone. It exhibits properties typical of alcohols, including the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other substances. 1,4-Naphthalenedimethanol is often used as an intermediate in organic synthesis and can serve as a building block for various chemical applications, including the production of polymers and other functional materials. Additionally, it may exhibit biological activity, making it of interest in medicinal chemistry. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
