Salicyl alcohol (saligenin) is an organic compound with the formula C₆HOH(CH₂OH. It is a white solid that is used as a precursor in organic synthesis.^[3]

Synthesis and applications

Salicyl alcohol is produced by the hydroxymethylation of phenol using formaldehyde:^[4]

C₆H₅OH + CH₂O → C₆H₄OH(CH₂OH

Air oxidation of salicyl alcohol gives salicylaldehyde.

C₆H₄OH(CH₂OH + O → C₆H₄OH(CHO) +H₂O

Chemical sweeteners are formed by acetal formation with e.g. isovanillin (Cmp4).^[5]

Salicyl alcohol appears as a pharmacophore in several notable β2-adrenoceptor agonists (e.g. salbutamol), as well as in synthetic estrone analogs, e.g. CID:22940780 or CID:154236944.

Biosynthesis

Salicyl alcohol is the precursor of salicylic acid.^[6] It is formed from salicin by enzymatic hydrolysis by Salicyl-alcohol beta-D-glucosyltransferase or by acid hydrolysis.
