| | 2-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | light brown crystalline powder | | Chemical Properties | Salicyl alcohol: (saligenin, o-hydroxy benzyl alcohol) crystallizes from water in the form of needles or white rhombic crystals. It occurs in nature as the bitter glycoside, salicin CAS: 138-52-3, which is isolated from the bark of Salix helix, S. pentandra, S. praecos, some other species of willow trees, and the bark of a number of species of poplar trees such as Polpulus balsamifera, P. candicans, and P. nigra. | | Uses | anesthetic (local), antiinflammatory | | Uses | 2-Hydroxybenzyl Alcohol is a phenolic component of a part of a salix bark extract which maintains a minor anti-depressant effect. Phenolic analog with potential for anti-melanomic effect. Also It is an intermediate in the production of phenol formaldehyde res ins (may remain after condensation of the resin); sensitizer in phenol-formaldehyde resins; in loeal anesthetics. | | Definition | ChEBI: A hydroxybenzyl alcohol that is phenol substituted by a hydroxymethyl group at C-2. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 60, p. 5314, 1995 DOI: 10.1021/jo00121a060
Tetrahedron Letters, 10, p. 1739, 1969 | | General Description | 2-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol participates in the selective ring opening reaction of 4H-1,3,2-benzodioxasilines. | | 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 saligenine from water or EtOH/*C6H6 (m 89o). [Beilstein 6 III 4537, 6 IV 5896.] |
