:4′-Hydroxyacetophenone
Description:
4′-Hydroxyacetophenone, also known as p-hydroxyacetophenone, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C8H8O2. It features a hydroxyl group (-OH) and an acetyl group (-COCH3) attached to a phenyl ring, making it a derivative of acetophenone. This compound appears as a white to light yellow crystalline solid and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. It is primarily used in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Additionally, 4′-Hydroxyacetophenone exhibits antioxidant properties and can be utilized in the production of dyes and fragrances. Its melting point and boiling point are characteristic of its molecular structure, and it is important to handle it with care due to potential irritant effects. As with many organic compounds, safety data sheets should be consulted for proper handling and disposal guidelines.
