Description:2-Aminoresorcinol is a synthetic chemical compound that inhibits the reaction of amines with chlorine atoms. It is used as an intermediate in the production of resorcinol and 2-aminophenol. The reaction mechanism involves the formation of a chloramine (chlorine atom attached to an amine) which, in turn, reacts with malonic acid to produce an intermediate that undergoes intramolecular hydrogen transfer. This reaction results in the formation of a chloroform molecule. A second step involves hydroxylation by hydrochloric acid, which leads to the formation of chloral hydrate. In this way, 2-aminoresorcinol can be used for the synthesis of both resorcinol and 2-aminophenol. 2-Aminoresorcinol is also known for its inhibitory effects on certain reactions involving amines and sulfur compounds such as thiourea and carbonyl compounds such as malonic acid.
