Orcinol is important aromatic dihydroxy intermediate for biochemical reagent, pharmaceutical and dyestuff industries. In biochemistry testing, it is classic chromogenic reagent for ribose & RNA quantitative determination via color reaction under acidic heating condition, widely used in lab nucleic acid detection. Pharmaceutical field takes it as starting raw material to synthesize antibacterial, anti-inflammatory and dermatology API after etherification, acylation and ring closure reactions. Dye industry uses it to prepare natural-derived mordant dyes and fluorescent dye intermediates. Organic synthesis labs adopt it as standard substrate for phenolic derivatization and catalyst screening research. High purity analytical grade is packed in 250g/1L bottle for lab distributors; industrial grade 25kg fiber drum with inner PE bag for fine chemical factories worldwide.

GHS:H315,H319,H335;Signal Word:Warning Phenolic irritant solid, dust irritates skin, eye and respiratory mucosa. Skin contamination leads to erythema and itching, flush with running water over 15 min after contact. Powder splashed into eyes causes severe irritation and lacrimation, continuous eye rinse ≥15min and see doctor if needed. Inhalation of fine dust induces throat ache and cough; all operations in ventilated fume hood with nitrile gloves, splash goggles and dust mask. Keep far from strong oxidants to prevent oxidative exothermic reaction. Store isolated from food raw materials under airtight dark condition. Waste solid & filtrate classified as hazardous organic waste, disposed by qualified agency complying with local environmental rules, forbid random drainage into sewer or soil.
