Common Name | 2-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol |
---|
Description | 2-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol, also known as 2-(hydroxymethyl)phenol or saligenin, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzyl alcohols. These are organic compounds containing the phenylmethanol substructure. 2-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 2-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. Outside of the human body, 2-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol has been detected, but not quantified in, several different foods, such as evening primroses, corns, carobs, java plums, and peppermints. This could make 2-hydroxybenzyl alcohol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. A hydroxybenzyl alcohol that is phenol substituted by a hydroxymethyl group at C-2. |
