Detailed Project Report on benzyl alcohol from benzyl chloride using water

BENZYL ALCOHOL FROM BENZYL
CHLORIDE USING WATER
[CODE NO.3467]  


Benzyl alcohol (C7HaO) and its esters are found in the essential oils of a wide variety of flowers and in balsams obtained from the exudation of trunks of resinous trees. Benzyl alcohol is one of the few chemicals used extensively not only in perfumery but in totally unrelated fields as well, such as pharmaceuticals, lacquers, etc. Large quantities of benzyl alcohol are therefore manufactured of which only a portion is used in the perfumery industry.

Benzyl alcohol has a somewhat weak odour and its main use is as a solvent in perfumes and pharmaceuticals. It is represented by the following structural formula:
