CAS 60907-90-6

1-(2,3-Dimethylphenyl)ethanol

Description:

1-(2,3-Dimethylphenyl)ethanol, with the CAS number 60907-90-6, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and alcohol functional group. It features a phenolic ring substituted with two methyl groups at the 2 and 3 positions, contributing to its hydrophobic nature and potential for steric hindrance. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and has a moderate boiling point, indicative of its molecular weight and structure. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic characteristics. The presence of the hydroxyl (-OH) group imparts some polar characteristics, allowing for hydrogen bonding, which can influence its reactivity and interactions with other substances. 1-(2,3-Dimethylphenyl)ethanol may be utilized in various applications, including as a building block in organic synthesis, in the formulation of fragrances, or as an intermediate in the production of other chemical compounds. Its safety profile should be considered, as with any chemical, and appropriate handling procedures should be followed.
