1,4-Benzenedimethanol

Description:

1,4-Benzenedimethanol, also known as p-xylyleneglycol, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C8H10O2. It features two hydroxymethyl groups (-CH2OH) attached to a benzene ring at the 1 and 4 positions, making it a diol. This compound is typically a colorless, viscous liquid or solid at room temperature, exhibiting a sweet odor. It is soluble in water and various organic solvents, which enhances its utility in chemical applications. 1,4-Benzenedimethanol is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of polymers, resins, and other chemical products. Its hydroxyl groups allow for the formation of hydrogen bonds, contributing to its reactivity and making it useful in cross-linking reactions. Additionally, it has applications in the production of plasticizers and as a building block in the manufacture of surfactants and other specialty chemicals. Safety data indicates that it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes.
