Common Name | 1-Phenoxyethanol |

Description | 1-Phenoxyethanol also known as phenoxyethanol belongs to the class of organic compounds known as phenol ethers. These are aromatic compounds containing an ether group substituted with a benzene ring. 1-Phenoxyethanol is also classified as a glycol ether, a phenol ether, and an aromatic alcohol. There are two known isomers of phenoxyethanol including 1-phenoxyethanol and 2-phenoxyethanol. 1-Phenoxyethanol is the less widely used isomer and less studied than 2-Phenoxyethanol. It is produced by the hydroxyethylation of phenol (Williamson synthesis) in the presence of alkali-metal hydroxides or alkali-metal borohydrides. 1-Phenoxyethanol exhibits antibacterial activity and is effective against gram-negative and gram-positive bacteria, as well as the yeast Candida albicans. 1-Phenoxyethanol is a known constituent of cannabis smoke and is formed during the combustion of cannabis ( Ref:DOI ). |
