CAS 589-29-7 — 1,4-Benzenedimethanol

1,4-Benzenedimethanol is an aromatic diol featuring two hydroxymethyl groups positioned para to each other on a benzene ring. It serves as a key intermediate in the synthesis of polymers, pharmaceuticals, and specialty chemicals, including UV stabilizers and high-performance resins. CAS 589-29-7, a white crystalline solid with a melting point of 115–117°C, is non-hazardous (no signal word) and soluble in polar organic solvents. Purity typically exceeds 98%, with minimal impurities like water or residual solvents. Molekula supplies 1,4-Benzenedimethanol from research to bulk quantities with full documentation and ISO 9001:2015 traceability.
