3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzenemethanol

Description:

3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzenemethanol, also known by its IUPAC name, is an organic compound characterized by the presence of a fluorine atom, a hydroxyl group, and a benzene ring with a methanol side chain. The molecular structure features a fluorine substituent at the meta position relative to the hydroxyl group on the benzene ring, which can influence its chemical reactivity and physical properties. This compound is likely to exhibit polar characteristics due to the hydroxyl group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding, enhancing its solubility in polar solvents. The presence of the fluorine atom may also impart unique electronic properties, potentially affecting the compound's reactivity and interaction with biological systems. 3-Fluoro-4-hydroxybenzenemethanol may find applications in pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, or as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Safety data and handling precautions should be consulted, as with any chemical substance, to ensure proper use and minimize risks.
