N,N-diethyl-3-(hydroxymethyl)benzamide

Description:

N,N-Diethyl-3-(hydroxymethyl)benzamide is an organic compound characterized by its amide functional group, which is derived from benzoic acid. This compound features a benzene ring substituted with a hydroxymethyl group and two ethyl groups attached to the nitrogen atom of the amide. The presence of the hydroxymethyl group contributes to its potential solubility in polar solvents, while the diethyl groups enhance its hydrophobic characteristics. The molecular structure suggests that it may exhibit moderate to low volatility and could participate in hydrogen bonding due to the hydroxymethyl group. This compound may be of interest in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals, due to its potential biological activity. Additionally, its unique structure may influence its reactivity and interaction with other chemical species. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
