| | 3-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | pink or beige to brown crystalline powder | | Uses | 3-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol is used as an intermediate to produce other chemicals like 3-Oxy-1'-acetoxy-1-methyl-benzol. | | Definition | ChEBI: A hydroxybenzyl alcohol that is phenol substituted at position C-3 by a hydroxymethyl group. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 14, p. 1089, 1949 DOI: 10.1021/jo01158a018
Synthesis, p. 365, 1979 | | Contact allergens | Methylol phenols are sensitizers contained in resins
based on phenol and formaldehyde of the resol type.
Cross-reactivity is possible with other phenol derivative
molecules. | | Purification Methods | Crystallise the alcohol from *C6H6 or CHCl3. [Beilstein 6 III 4545, 6 IV 5907.] |
