3-Aminophenol, 98+%, Thermo Scientific Chemicals

Description

A chemical used in the preparation of inhibitors of mammalian carbonic anhydrase isoforms. It is also used in the preparation of quinoline tethered fluorescent carbon dots for regulated anticancer discovery. It is employed in the production of TB drugs, salicylic acid, amino stabilizer and developers. 3-Aminophenol has been used as a stabilizer of chlorine-containing thermoplastics, although its principal use is as an intermediate in the production of 4-amino-2-hydroxybenzoic acid this isomer is also employed as a hair colorant and as a coupler molecule in hair dyes.

This Thermo Scientific Chemicals brand product was originally part of the Alfa Aesar product portfolio. Some documentation and label information may refer to the legacy brand. The original Alfa Aesar product / item code or SKU reference has not changed as a part of the brand transition to Thermo Scientific Chemicals.
