Description
It appears as white crystals or off-white flakes. It is an aminophenol that is one of three amino derivatives of phenol which has the single amino substituent located meta to the phenolic -OH group. It is an amphoteric molecule and a reducing agent. Aminophenols are intermediates in the synthesis of dyes and can thus be found in numerous cosmetics products, particularly hair dyes.

Application
1. It is an important starting material for dyes, including a variety of leuco (or latent) dyes used in imaging technology, optical bleaches and fluorescent agents, drugs, agricultural chemicals; and high-performance polymers.
2. It is an aromatic compound used in the preparation of inhibitors of mammalian carbonic anhydrase isoforms. Also used in the preparation of quinoline tethered fluorescent carbon dots for regulated anticancer discovery.
3. It can be used as dye intermediate, manufacture of p-aminosalicylic acid.
4. 3-Aminophenol has been used in the synthesis of disulfonated bis[4-(3-aminophenoxy) phenyl] sulfone (S-BAPS). It can be used to synthesize: Methyl 2-oxo-7-[(triphenylphosphoranylidene) amino]-2H-chromene-4-carboxylate by reacting with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) in the presence of triphenylphosphine. 3-Amino-2-cyclohexen-1-one via palladium-catalyzed hydrogenation.
