p-Octyloxybenzyl Alcohol

Description:
p-Octyloxybenzyl alcohol, with the CAS number 67698-68-4, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure and the presence of an octyloxy group. This compound features a benzyl alcohol moiety, where the hydroxyl (-OH) group is attached to a benzene ring that is further substituted with an octyloxy group at the para position. The octyloxy group contributes to its hydrophobic characteristics, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. p-Octyloxybenzyl alcohol is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It exhibits moderate volatility and has applications in various fields, including as a surfactant, emulsifier, or in the formulation of personal care products. Additionally, its structure allows for potential use in liquid crystal displays and other advanced materials due to its ability to influence molecular orientation. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
