7330-81-6 Usage
Molecular Weight
166.22 g/mol
Chemical Structure
A benzene ring with two hydroxyl (-OH) groups at the 1 and 4 positions, and two ethyl (-CH2CH3) groups at the 2 and 6 positions.
Functional Groups
Phenol (due to the presence of hydroxyl groups), Ethyl groups
Physical State
Likely a solid at room temperature (based on similar compounds)
Appearance
Colorless to pale yellow solid (typical for phenolic compounds)
Solubility
Soluble in organic solvents like ethanol, methanol, and acetone; insoluble in water (due to the presence of hydrocarbon groups)
Boiling Point
Not readily available, but expected to be higher than that of 1,4-benzenediol due to the presence of ethyl groups
Melting Point
Not readily available, but expected to be lower than that of 1,4-benzenediol due to the presence of ethyl groups
Density
Not readily available, but expected to be higher than that of 1,4-benzenediol due to the presence of ethyl groups
Applications
a. Building block in the synthesis of pharmaceutical drugs
b. Intermediate in organic chemistry
c. Potential use in the development of skincare and cosmetic products due to antioxidant and antimicrobial properties
Skin irritation
Can cause skin burns and irritation
Eye irritation
Can cause eye burns and irritation
Inhalation
Can be harmful if inhaled
Ingestion
Can be harmful if swallowed
Safety Precautions
a. Wear protective gloves, goggles, and masks when handling
b. Store in a well-ventilated area, away from heat and open flames
c. Dispose of according to local regulations and guidelines
Acids
May react with strong acids, leading to esterification or other reactions
Bases
May react with strong bases, leading to deprotonation of the hydroxyl groups
Oxidizing agents
May undergo oxidation reactions, leading to the formation of quinones or other products
Reducing agents
May undergo reduction reactions, leading to the formation of alcohols or other products
Stability
Stable under normal conditions, but sensitive to heat, light, and moisture (typical for phenolic compounds)
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 7330-81-6 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 7,3,3 and 0 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 8 and 1 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 7330-81:
(6*7)+(5*3)+(4*3)+(3*0)+(2*8)+(1*1)=86
86 % 10 = 6
So 7330-81-6 is a valid CAS Registry Number.
