Aromatic alcohol
Aromatic alcohols, also known as phenols, are organic compounds that combine an aromatic ring structure, typically benzene, with a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached directly to the aromatic ring. These compounds are characterized by their distinctive and often strong medicinal or antiseptic-like odors. Phenols exhibit unique chemical properties due to the resonance stabilization of the aromatic ring, which influences their reactivity and stability. They are widely used in industries such as pharmaceuticals, where they serve as antiseptics, disinfectants, and as intermediates in the synthesis of various drugs.
