2'-METHYL[1,1'-BIPHENYL]-3-OL

Model: 106912-94-1
The product is 2'-METHYL[1,1'-BIPHENYL]-3-OL, a biphenyl scaffold composed of a phenol ring and a toluene ring connected at the 1‑ and 1'‑positions. The phenolic hydroxyl group sits at the meta position relative to the biphenyl linkage, while a single methyl group occupies the ortho‑position of the adjacent ring. This substitution pattern creates a sterically biased, axially flexible structure where the phenol can serve as a nucleophilic handle, a hydrogen‑bond donor, or a precursor to triflate derivatives for further cross‑coupling. The compound provides a straightforward entry point into meta‑substituted biphenyl pharmacophores.

2'-METHYL[1,1'-BIPHENYL]-3-OL is a versatile intermediate utilized in the synthesis of liquid crystals, non‑steroidal anti‑inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), and functional materials. The phenolic group of 2'-METHYL[1,1'-BIPHENYL]-3-OL can be readily etherified, esterified, or converted to a sulfonate to enable nickel‑ or copper‑mediated coupling at the C–O position. Because 2'-METHYL[1,1'-BIPHENYL]-3-OL is a well‑characterized solid, it can be incorporated into multi‑step sequences without the handling difficulties associated with oily phenol intermediates. Medicinal chemists have used 2'-METHYL[1,1'-BIPHENYL]-3-OL to generate libraries of biphenyl‑based enzyme inhibitors where the methyl group improves potency by occupying a small hydrophobic pocket.
