?2-Aminophenol is an organic compound with the formula C6H4(OH)NH2. Along with its isomer 4-aminophenol, it is an amphoteric molecule and a reducing agent. It is a useful reagent for the synthesis of dyes and heterocyclic compounds. Reflecting its slight hydrophilic character, white powder is moderately soluble in alcohols and can be recrystallised from hot water.?O-Aminophenol (CAS NO.95-55-6) should avoid the condition like incompatible materials,light. It is incompatibilities with? other materials light, acids, acid chlorides, acid anhydrides, chloroformates.?Its hazardous decomposition products are nitrogen oxides, carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide. Its hazardous polymerization has not been reported.? |
