2-HYDROXYPHENETHYL ALCOHOL Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Clear yellow liquid

Uses

2-Hydroxybenzeneethanol can be used to synthesize cyclic products and organoaluminim oligomers. Inelastic electron tunnelling spectra of 2-hydroxyphenethyl alcohol adsorbed on thin-film aluminium and magnesium oxide has been investigated.

Definition

ChEBI: A phenol that is 2-phenylethanol in which the phenyl ring is substituted at position 2 by a hydroxy group.

General Description

2-Hydroxyphenethyl alcohol reacts with triethyl or trimethyl aluminium to yield cyclic products and organoaluminim oligomers. Inelastic electron tunnelling spectra of 2-hydroxyphenethyl alcohol adsorbed on thin-film aluminium and magnesium oxide has been investigated.
