4-Biphenylmethanol Chemical Properties,Uses,Production
Chemical Properties
white to beige powder
Uses
Biphenyl-4-methanol was used as reagent for the rapid quantitative determination of lithium alkyls.
Application
4-Biphenylmethanol is a low potency naphthalene derivative that has been shown to be carcinogenic in animal studies. It is also an inhibitor of protein synthesis, which may play a role in its carcinogenic potential. 4-Biphenylmethanol has been shown to inhibit the growth of Salmonella typhimurium and Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain when used at concentrations of 50 μg/mL or higher. This compound can react with hydrochloric acid to form hydrogen bonding interactions, which may account for its observed antibacterial activity.
General Description
Biphenyl-4-methanol acts as monofunctional alcohol initiator during the ring-opening polymerization of trimethylene carbonate (TMC) catalyzed by CH3SO3H and copolymerisation of ε-caprolactone and TMC.
