Description

Benzohydrol is a colorless crystalline compound with the formula C13H12O. It is a secondary alcohol, with the hydroxyl group attached to a carbon atom that is also attached to a phenyl group. Benzohydrol can be synthesized by the reduction of benzophenone with various reducing agents, such as sodium borohydride or lithium aluminum hydride. It is a useful intermediate in organic synthesis and has been used in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. Benzohydrol has also been studied for its biological activity, as it has been shown to have antioxidant properties. Its significance lies in its role as a precursor to other compounds, its antioxidant potential, and its use in chemical reactions.'
