Описание
Phenol is a stable chemical substance and appear as colourless/white crystals with a
characteristic, distinct aromatic/acrid odour. It is reactive and incompatible with strong
oxidising agents, strong bases, strong acids, alkalis, and calcium hypochlorite. Phenol is
flammable and may discolour in light.
Phenol is used in the manufacture or production of explosives, fertiliser, coke, illuminating
gas, lampblack, paints, paint removers, rubber, perfumes, asbestos goods, wood
preservatives, synthetic resins, textiles, drugs, and pharmaceutical preparations. It is also
extensively used as a disinfectant in the petroleum, leather, paper, soap, toy, tanning, dye,
and agricultural industries.
Химические свойства
Phenol, C6H5OH, also known as carbolic acid and phenylic acid, is a white poisonous crystalline solid that melts at 43 °C (110 OF) and boils at 182°C (360 OF). Phenol has a sharp burning taste,a distinctive odor, and it irritates tissue. It is toxic not only by ingestion or inhalation, but also by skin absorption. Phenol is soluble in water,alcohol,and ether. It is used in the production of resins,germicides,weedkillers,pharmaceuticals, and as a solvent in the refining of lubricating oils.
Физические свойства
Phenol is a colorless or white crystalline solid that is slightly soluble in water. Phenol is the
simplest of the large group of organic chemicals known as phenols, which consist of compounds
where a carbon in the phenyl aromatic group (C6H5) is directly bonded to hydroxyl,
OH.

История
Phenol’s first prominent use was by Joseph Lister (1827–1912) as an antiseptic.
Throughout human history,infection often resulted in death,even when the wound could
be surgically treated.A broken bone piercing the skin, which today is a painful but not
life-threatening injury,historically resulted in infection and possible amputation or death.
Lister was inspired by Louis Pasteur’s (1822–1895) germ theory of disease,and he began
to use antiseptic methods during routine surgery during the 1860s.
Использование
phenol is frequently used for medical chemical face peels. It may trap free radicals and can act as a preservative. Phenol, however, is an extremely caustic chemical with a toxicity potential. It is considered undesirable for use in cosmetics. even at low concentrations, it frequently causes skin irritation, swelling, and rashes.
Определение
ChEBI: An organic hydroxy compound that consists of benzene bearing a single hydroxy substituent. The parent of the class of phenols.
Подготовка
Phenol is formed in dry distillation of wood, peat and coal; coal tar is one of the commercial sources of phenol and its
homologues.
Показания
Phenol in dilute solution (0.5% to 2%) decreases itch by anesthetizing the cutaneous
nerve endings. Phenol should never be used on pregnant women or infants younger
than 6 months of age.
Методы производства
Historically, phenol was produced by the distillation of coal tar.
Today, phenol is prepared by one of several synthetic methods, such
as the fusion of sodium benzenesulfonate with sodium hydroxide
followed by acidification; the hydrolysis of chlorobenzene by dilute
sodium hydroxide at high temperature and pressure to give sodium
phenate, which on acidification liberates phenol (Dow process); or
the catalytic vapor-phase reaction of steam and chlorobenzene at
500°C (Raschig process).
Всемирная организация здравоохранения(ВОЗ)
Phenol became widely used as an antiseptic following
demonstration of its germicidal activity in 1867. It is an intensely corrosive
substance and percutaneous absorption can produce serious systemic toxicity. It
has been withdrawn from pharmaceutical preparations by at least one national
regulatory authority. However, it is still used widely in concentrations of the order
of 1.4% in proprietary preparations for the relief of soreness of the mouth and
throat.
Общее описание
A solid melting at 110°F. Colorless if pure, otherwise pink or red. Flash point 175°F. Density 9.9 lb / gal. Vapors are heavier than air Corrosive to the skin (turning skin white) but because of its anesthetic quality numbs rather than burn. Lethal amounts can be absorbed through the skin. Used to make plastics and adhesives.
Реакции воздуха и воды
Decomposes slowly in air. Mixtures of 9-10% phenol in air are explosive. Soluble in water
Профиль реактивности
PHENOL is a weak acid. Reacts exothermically with bases. Reacts with strong oxidizing agents. Emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes when heated to decomposition. Undergoes, in the presence of aluminum chloride, potentially explosive reactions with nitromethane, butadiene, formaldehyde, peroxodisulfuric acid, peroxosulfuric acid, and sodium nitrite . Reacts violently with sodium nitrate in the presence of trifluoroacetic acid [Bretherick, 5th ed., 1995, p. 770]. May corrode lead, aluminum and its alloys, certain plastics, and rubber. Phenol may explode in contact with peroxodisulfuric acid (Dns, J. Ber., 1910, 43, 1880; Z. Anorg. Chem., 1911, 73, 1911.) or peroxomonosulfuric acid. (Sidgwick, 1950, 939)
Угроза здоровью
Phenol and its vapors are corrosive to the eyes, skin, and respiratory tract. The corrosive effect on skin and mucous membranes is due to a protein-degenerating effect. Repeated or prolonged skin contact with phenol may cause dermatitis, and potentially second and third-degree burns. Inhalation of phenol vapor may cause lung edema. Phenol may adversely effect the central nervous system and heart. Long-term, or repeated exposure, to phenol may have harmful effects on the liver and kidneys.
While there is no evidence that phenol causes cancer in humans it is readily absorbed through the skin; systemic poisoning can occur in addition to the local caustic burns. Resorptive poisoning by a large quantity of phenol can occur even with only a small area of skin, rapidly leading to paralysis of the central nervous system and a severe drop in body temperature. Phenol is also a reproductive toxin causing increased risk of abortion and low birth weight indicating retarded development in utero.
Chemical burns from skin exposures can be decontaminated by washing with polyethylene glycol or isopropyl alcohol; flushing with copious amounts of water will help to remediate the burn. Removal of contaminated clothing is required, as well as immediate hospital treatment for large splashes.

Flammable vapors when heated. Runoff from fire control water may give off poisonous gases and cause pollution. Mixtures of 9-10% phenol in air are explosive. Avoid aluminum chloride/nitrobenzene mixture, peroxodisulfuric acid, peroxomonosulfuric acid and strong oxidizing agents. Decomposes slowly on air contact. Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents.
Воспламеняемость и взрывоопасность
Phenol is a combustible solid (NFPA rating = 2). When heated, phenol produces
flammable vapors that are explosive at concentrations of 3 to 10% in air. Carbon
dioxide or dry chemical extinguishers should be used to fight phenol fires.
Фармацевтические приложения
Phenol is used mainly as an antimicrobial preservative in parenteral
pharmaceutical products. It has also been used in topical
pharmaceutical formulations and cosmetics;
Phenol is widely used as an antiseptic, disinfectant, and
therapeutic agent, although it should not be used to preserve
preparations that are to be freeze-dried.
Промышленное использование
Phenol is the simplest member of a class oforganic compounds possessing a hydroxylgroup attached to a benzene ring or to a morecomplex aromatic ring system.
Also known as carbolic acid or monohydroxybenzene,phenol is a colorless to whitecrystalline material of sweet odor, having thecomposition C6H5OH, obtained from the distillationof coal tar and as a by-product ofcoke ovens.
Phenol has broad biocidal properties, anddilute aqueous solutions have long been usedas an antiseptic. At higher concentrations itcauses severe skin burns; it is a violent systemicpoison. It is a valuable chemical raw materialfor the production of plastics, dyes, pharmaceuticals,syntans, and other products.
Phenol is one of the most versatile industrialorganic chemicals. It is the starting point formany diverse products used in the home andindustry. A partial list includes nylon, epoxyresins, surface active agents, synthetic detergents,plasticizers, antioxidants, lube oil additives,phenolic resins (with formaldehyde, furfural,and so on), cyclohexanol, adipic acid,polyurethanes, aspirin, dyes, wood preservatives,herbicides, drugs, fungicides, gasolineadditives, inhibitors, explosives, and pesticides.
Безопасность
Phenol is highly corrosive and toxic, the main effects being on the
central nervous system. The lethal human oral dose is estimated to
be 1 g for an adult.
Phenol is absorbed from the gastrointestinal tract, skin, and
mucous membranes, and is metabolized to phenylglucuronide and
phenyl sulfate, which are excreted in the urine.
Although there are a number of reports describing the toxic
effects of phenol, these largely concern instances of accidental
poisoning or adverse reactions during its use as a therapeutic
agent.Adverse reactions associated with phenol used as a
preservative are less likely owing to the smaller quantities that are
used; however, it has been suggested that the body burden of phenol
should not exceed 50 mg in a 10-hour period.This amount could
be exceeded following administration of large volumes of phenolpreserved
medicines.
LD50 (mouse, IV): 0.11 g/kg
LD50 (mouse, oral): 0.3 g/kg
LD50 (rabbit, skin): 0.85 g/kg
LD50 (rat, skin): 0.67 g/kg
LD50 (rat, oral): 0.32 g/kg
LD50 (rat, SC): 0.46 g/kg
Возможный контакт
Phenol is used as a pharmaceutical, in the production of fertilizer; coke, illuminating gas; lampblack, paints, paint removers; rubber, asbestos goods; wood preservatives; synthetic resins; textiles, drugs, pharmaceutical preparations; perfumes, bakelite, and other plastics (phenolformaldehyde resins); polymer intermediates (caprolactam, bisphenol-A and adipic acid). Phenol also finds wide use as a disinfectant and veterinary drug.
Канцерогенность
Phenol had been investigated for carcinogenicity in animals by the oral and dermal routes. IARC and IRIS determined that animal human evidence for carcinogenicity was inadequate.
хранилище
When exposed to air and light, phenol turns a red or brown color,
the color being influenced by the presence of metallic impurities.
Oxidizing agents also hasten the color change. Aqueous solutions of
phenol are stable. Oily solutions for injection may be sterilized in
hermetically sealed containers by dry heat. The bulk material
should be stored in a well-closed, light-resistant container at a
temperature not exceeding 15°C.
