Phenol (C6H5OH) is an important organic compound that exists as a colorless or white crystalline solid at room temperature, possessing a distinctive odor.
phenol physical properties
- Melting point: 40.9
- Boiling point: 181.7
- Density: 1.07 g/cm³
- Slightly soluble in water; readily soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and diethyl ether
Chemical Properties of Phenol
Phenol exhibits weak acidity (pKa=9.95) and reacts with bases to form phenolates. The hydroxyl group on its benzene ring makes it prone to electrophilic substitution reactions, with pronounced ortho-para directing effects.
