7-methylnaphthalen-1-ol

Description:

7-Methylnaphthalen-1-ol, with the CAS number 6939-33-9, is an organic compound belonging to the class of naphthalenes, which are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. This compound features a hydroxyl (-OH) group attached to the naphthalene ring, specifically at the 1-position, along with a methyl group at the 7-position. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity, and has a characteristic aromatic odor. The presence of the hydroxyl group makes it a phenolic compound, which can participate in hydrogen bonding, influencing its solubility and reactivity. 7-Methylnaphthalen-1-ol is used in various applications, including as an intermediate in organic synthesis and potentially in the production of fragrances and other chemical derivatives. Its physical properties, such as boiling point and melting point, can vary, but it generally exhibits moderate volatility and is soluble in organic solvents. Safety data should be consulted for handling and exposure guidelines, as with any chemical substance.
