3-Benzyloxy-1-propanol（Cat No.:R063865）is a versatile organic compound featuring a benzyloxy group attached to the terminal carbon of a three-carbon alcohol chain. It combines the properties of a protected alcohol (via benzyl ether) with a free primary hydroxyl group, making it useful in multi-step organic synthesis. The benzyl group serves as a common protecting group that can be selectively removed under mild hydrogenolysis conditions. This molecule is frequently employed in the preparation of pharmaceuticals, polymers, and fine chemicals, where selective functionalization and stepwise modifications are required for complex molecular construction.
