| | 4-Hydroxybenzophenone Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white to beige fine crystalline powder | | Uses | Metabolite of benzophenone. | | Uses | 4-Hydroxybenzophenone is used in the field of organic synthesis. It is used as pharmaceutical intermediate of clomifene citrate. | | Preparation | Preparation by condensation of benzotrichloride,
? with phenol in the presence of aluminium chloride in carbon disulfide at 0° (90%) or in the presence of zinc oxide in a water bath;
? with p-bromophenol in 30% sodium hydroxide solution at 80–85° (81%). There is substitution of the bromine atom by the benzoyl group. | | Definition | ChEBI: 4-Hydroxybenzophenone is a member of benzophenones. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | Journal of the American Chemical Society, 77, p. 4674, 1955 DOI: 10.1021/ja01622a074
