The chemical structure can be represented as:Phenol is a white crystalline solid at room temperature and has a distinct, sweet, and medicinal odor. It was initially isolated from coal tar, but it can also be produced through various chemical processes. Phenol has numerous applications in industry. It is used in the production of plastics, resins, dyes, detergents, pharmaceuticals, and various chemical intermediates. It also has antiseptic properties and was historically used as a disinfectant and topical anesthetic. However, its use for these purposes has diminished due to its potential toxicity.It's important to note that phenol can be corrosive and toxic, and exposure should be handled with care. Various derivatives and substitutes have been developed for specific applications to mitigate some of the drawbacks associated with phenol itself.
