Resorcinol BP

Abstract
Resorcinol (or resorcin) is a phenolic compound. It is an organic compound with the formula C6H4(OH)2. It is one of three isomeric benzenediols, the 1,3-isomer (or meta-isomer). Resorcinol crystallizes from benzene as colorless needles that are readily soluble in water, alcohol, and ether, but insoluble in chloroform and carbon disulfide.

 

Use/Application:
Resorcinol is used as a chemical intermediate for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds.
