Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Namem-Aminophenol
Description3-Aminophenol, also known as m-hydroxyaniline, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as anilines and substituted anilines. These are organic compounds containing an aminobenzene moiety. 3-Aminophenol is also classified as an aromatic amine and an aromatic alcohol. 3-Aminophenol is used in the synthesis of 3-(diethylamino)phenol, a key intermediate for the preparation of several fluorescent dyes (e.g., rhodamine B). Other uses for 3-Aminophenol include hair dye colorants and stabilizers for chlorine-containing thermoplastics. Aminophenols are intermediates in the synthesis of dyes and can thus be found in numerous cosmetics products, particularly hair dyes. Inhalation of large amounts of 3-Aminophenol can cause methemoglobinemia and bronchial asthma. Signs and symptoms of methemoglobinemia may include shortness of breath, cyanosis, mental status changes, headache, fatigue, exercise intolerance, dizziness and loss of consciousness. In comparison to its isomers, 2-aminophenol and 4-aminophenol, 3-aminophenol is the least effective in forming methemoglobin. 3-Aminophenol may cause contact dermatitis (PMID: 29574799 ). 3-Aminophenol is a constituent of cannabis smoke and is formed during the combustion of cannabis ( Ref:DOI ).
