Wikipedia	License
Phenol (also known as carbolic acid, phenolic acid, or benzenol) is an aromatic organic compound with the molecular formula C6H5OH. It is a white crystalline solid that is volatile. The molecule consists of a phenyl group (−C6H5) bonded to a hydroxy group (−OH). Mildly acidic, it requires careful handling because it can cause chemical burns. Phenol was first extracted from coal tar, but today is produced on a large scale (about 7 million tonnes a year) from petroleum-derived feedstocks. It is an important industrial commodity as a precursor to many materials and useful compounds. It is primarily used to synthesize plastics and related materials. Phenol and its chemical derivatives are essential for production of polycarbonates, epoxies, explosives such as picric acid, Bakelite, nylon, detergents, herbicides such as phenoxy herbicides, and numerous pharmaceutical drugs.

Roles Classification
Chemical Role(s):	oxidising agent A substance that removes electrons from another reactant in a redox reaction.

Biological Role(s):	Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite Any fungal metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in Baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae ). human metabolite Any mammalian metabolite produced during a metabolic reaction in humans (Homo sapiens). micronutrient Any nutrient required in small quantities by organisms throughout their life in order to orchestrate a range of physiological functions. nutrient A nutrient is a food component that an organism uses to survive and grow. food packaging gas A food additive that is a (generally inert) gas which is used to envelop foodstuffs during packing and so protect them from unwanted chemical reactions such as food spoilage or oxidation during subsequent transport and storage. The term includes propellant gases, used to expel foods from a container.

Application(s):	anti-inflammatory drug A substance that reduces or suppresses inflammation. reagent A substance used in a chemical reaction to detect, measure, examine, or produce other substances. food packaging gas A food additive that is a (generally inert) gas which is used to envelop foodstuffs during packing and so protect them from unwanted chemical reactions such as food spoilage or oxidation during subsequent transport and storage. The term includes propellant gases, used to expel foods from a container.
