2,2'-Biphenol, also known as resorcinol, appears as white to pale yellow crystals or crystalline powder. It is practically insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers, and ketones. It exhibits excellent redox properties and can participate in reactions like acylation, etherification, or esterification. 2,2'-Biphenol serves as a crucial intermediate for numerous organic compounds and finds extensive applications in dyes, fluorescent agents, photosensitive materials, and related fields.
It also functions as a starting material for synthesizing polyimides, polyesters, and other polymers.
