Product Introduction:
2-Phenylphenol (chemical formula: C6H5OH-C6H4) is an aromatic organic compound usually appearing as white or light yellow crystals. With typical benzene rings and phenolic hydroxyl groups similar to those of phenol and benzene compounds, its chemical properties resemble those of these substances. 2-Phenylphenol can be made by reacting o-phenylchlorobenzene with sodium hydroxide; it is commonly employed as part of organic synthesis.
2-Phenylphenol’s melting point is approximately 40degC and boiling point 306degC. Although water solubility is poor, organic solvents such as alcohol and ether may dissolve it more readily. Due to its molecules comprising both hydrophilic hydroxyl groups and non-polar benzene rings – making its molecules both hydrophilic and hydrophobic at different points within its molecular structure – 2-Phenylphenol exhibits certain specificity when dissolving in different solvent systems.
2-Phenylphenol displays certain activity in chemical reactions. It can participate in the formation of derivatives by reacting with various halogens, acids, or organic compounds under certain conditions to form derivatives with higher activity; furthermore it undergoes rearrangement reactions under specific circumstances and coupling reactions with other organic molecules to produce compounds with even higher activity – providing it with potential applications such as organic synthesis, pharmaceutical formulations and agricultural chemicals.
2-Phenylphenol exhibits biological activity and its derivatives have widespread applications in medicine. Some of its derivatives have antibacterial and anti-inflammatory effects as well as being studied for development into anticancer drugs; furthermore it serves as raw material in some pesticides for plant protection.
2-Phenylphenol is an organic compound with multiple applications and properties. While its use must take into account potential environmental and health impacts, its wide use in synthetic chemistry, medicine and agriculture makes it an invaluable research object.

1. Organic synthesis and reaction
2-Phenylphenol is widely used in organic synthesis, and is often used as a synthetic intermediate in many chemical reactions, especially benzene ring substitution reactions. It can undergo electrophilic substitution reactions with halogens to produce corresponding halogenated derivatives. In addition, the coupling reaction is highly reactive with aromatic compounds and can generate polymers or high molecular weight substances. 2-Phenylphenol is also more widely used as an intermediate in the synthesis of aromatic compounds and is involved in the preparation of various drugs and chemicals.
2. The field of medicine
In the field of medicine, 2-Phenylphenol and its derivatives are widely used and studied. Some derivatives showed good antibacterial, antifungal, antiviral and anti-inflammatory activities. For example, it has antibacterial effects and can effectively inhibit the growth of common pathogens, so it is used in the synthesis of some specific antibacterial drugs.
3. Agriculture
2-Phenylphenol is widely used in agriculture, most notably as an insecticide, fungicide and plant protection product. Due to its strong antibacterial and antifungal activity, it is very useful in crop disease control. It is the main active ingredient in some fungicides to ensure that crops are protected from fungus and bacteria, thereby improving the yield and quality of agricultural products. In addition, it is used to regulate certain plant species to stimulate root growth.
4. Food industry and preservation
In the food industry, 2-Phenylphenol is used as a food preservative to extend the shelf life of foods. By inhibiting the growth of bacteria and mold, it can be used as a universal antibacterial agent for food packaging and storage. Fruits and vegetables are stored in a way that is particularly suitable for using it to prevent microbial contamination and decay. In this way, it becomes very important because it has antibacterial activity, which can extend its decay time while maintaining its fresh appearance.
5. Cosmetics and personal care products
2-Phenylphenol is used in cosmetics and personal care products. Due to its good antibacterial properties, it is used in certain skin care products, disinfectants and other personal care products such as shampoo. In addition, some of its derivatives have effects in skin whitening and improving pigmentation, and are widely used in skin care products to achieve the purpose of whitening.
6. Industrial use
In the industrial sector, 2-Phenylphenol can be used in the production of various synthetic rubber and processed plastics. It can be added as a plasticizer or stabilizer to specified rubbers and plastics to improve their processability and service life. Due to its mild antioxidant properties, 2-Phenylphenol is also added to oils and chemical stabilizers to extend storage and use time.
7. Environmental protection
2-Phenylphenol has applications in environmental protection activities, especially in water and wastewater treatment processes. Due to its strong inhibitory effect on bacteria and fungi, it can be used as an effective water treatment agent to eliminate harmful microorganisms in water. It can also play a role in source pollution treatment, helping to remove harmful substances from industrial wastewater.
1. Excellent antiseptic and bactericidal properties
• Broad-spectrum antibacterial properties: 2-Phenylphenol and its sodium salt are broad-spectrum fungicides and mildew removers that can inhibit the growth and reproduction of bacteria, fungi and other microorganisms, and have significant effects on fruits, vegetables, wood, leather, paper, etc. The excellent antiseptic and fresh-keeping effect can effectively reduce the risk of decay and deterioration and extend the shelf life and service life of the goods.
• Low toxicity and odorless: Compared with some conventional preservatives and fungicides, 2-Phenylphenol is much less toxic and has no noticeable odor. This will cause less harm to the human body and the surrounding environment during use, meet the environmental protection and health requirements of modern people, and is widely used in the fields of food preservation, cosmetics preservation, etc.
2. Good stability
•Good thermochemical stability: 2-Phenylphenol has stable chemical properties within a certain temperature range and is not easy to decompose and deteriorate. It can be used in some high-temperature processing or use environments, such as as a stabilizer for polymer materials such as plastics and resins to prevent these materials from deteriorating during processing. During use, the material will not age or deteriorate due to thermal oxidation and other reasons, thus improving the performance stability and service life of the material.
• Low chemical reactivity: 2-Phenylphenol is a substance with low chemical reactivity. It can form various useful compounds with different chemical substances, but it does not react exothermically with other substances. It is widely used in organic synthesis. For example, it can be used as a raw material for dye fixing agent, to produce new phosphorus flame retardants, to prepare multi-monomer materials for new polymers, etc. In these reactions, multiple different reactions are required to obtain the target product. The reaction conditions are relatively mild and easy to control.
3. Good solubility
• Solubility in organic solvents: 2-Phenylphenol is almost insoluble in water, but soluble in organic solvents such as methanol, acetone, benzene, xylene, trichloroethylene, and dichlorobenzene. This makes it compatible with different organic solvents in the processes of organic synthesis, coating preparation, plastic processing, etc., forming a uniform solution or dispersion system, which is beneficial to the reaction, processing and molding of materials and improves production efficiency and quality.
• Solubility in alkaline solution: 2-Phenylphenol is easily soluble in alkaline solution, which is the factor for its application in some specific processes. Therefore, it can be made to participate in reactions with pH adjustment or alkalinity treatment, it dissolves in alkaline solutions and transforms into different types of chemical transformations and actions.
