    PRODUCT NAME:RESORCINOL

    INFORMATION OF RESORCINOL:Resorcinol (or resorcin) is a benzenediol (m-dihydroxybenzene).
    DISCRIPTION OF RESORCINOL:Resorcinol is an aromatic alcohol useful in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and various organic compounds as a chemical intermediate. Resorcinol may be produced in bacteria from other phenolic compounds, and may undergo further conversion to alicyclic products and eventual oxidation to acetyl-CoA. Resorcinol cytotoxicity and cytokine release in human epidermal keratinocytes has been studied. Resorcinol is also used in platicizers and diazo dyes. It can be used in the qualitative determination of ketoses in the Seliwanoff test.Resorcinol is used to treat acne, seborrheic dermatitis, eczema, psoriasis, and other skin disorders. It is also used to treat corns, calluses, and warts.
    It is produced when any of a large number of resins (e.g., galbanum, asafoetida, etc.) are melted with potassium hydroxide, or by the distillation of Brazilwood extract. It may be prepared synthetically by melting 3-iodophenol, phenol-3-sulfonic acid, or benzene-1,3-disulfonic acid with potassium carbonate; by the action of nitrous acid on 3-aminophenol or on 1,3-diaminobenzene. Many ortho- and para-compounds of the aromatic series (for example, the bromophenols, benzene-para-disulfonic acid) also yield resorcinol on fusion with potassium hydroxide.
    Resorcinol is also used as a chemical intermediate for the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and other organic compounds. It is used in the production of diazo dyes and plasticizers and as a UV absorber in resins.

    An emerging use of resorcinol is as a template molecule in supramolecular chemistry. The -OH groups on resorcinol form hydrogen bonds to target molecules, holding them in the proper orientation for a reaction. Many such reactions are able to be carried out in the solid state, thereby reducing or eliminating the use of solvents that may be harmful to the environment. (see Green chemistry)

    Resorcinol is an analytical reagent for the qualitative determination of ketoses (Seliwanoff’s test).

    Resorcinol is the starting material for resorcinarene molecules and the initiating explosive lead styphnate.

    Resorcinol reacts with formaldehyde to form a thermoset resin which can form the basis of an aerogel.
