:4-Octyl-1,2-benzenediol
Description:
4-Octyl-1,2-benzenediol, also known as 4-octylcatechol, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure featuring a catechol moiety with an octyl side chain. This compound is a derivative of catechol, which consists of a benzene ring with two hydroxyl (-OH) groups positioned at the 1 and 2 positions. The presence of the octyl group enhances its hydrophobic properties, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. 4-Octyl-1,2-benzenediol exhibits antioxidant properties, which can be beneficial in various applications, including as a stabilizer in polymers and as an additive in cosmetics and personal care products. Its molecular structure contributes to its potential use in the synthesis of surfactants and other functional materials. Additionally, the compound's physical properties, such as melting point and boiling point, are influenced by the length of the alkyl chain and the presence of hydroxyl groups, which can also affect its reactivity and interaction with other substances. Safety data should be consulted for handling and usage guidelines.
