Chemical Structure

(2-Chlorophenyl)(3-chlorophenyl)methanol CAS 126517-23-5 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, (2-Chlorophenyl)(3-chlorophenyl)methanol (C13H10Cl2O) contains a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, chlorine substitution, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 8.0, corresponding to approximately 8 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 253.12 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
