Description4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol, also known as p-methylolphenol or 4-(hydroxymethyl)phenol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as benzyl alcohols. These are organic compounds containing the phenylmethanol substructure. 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol exists in all living organisms, ranging from bacteria to humans. 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol is a secondary metabolite. Secondary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically non-essential metabolites that may serve a role as defense or signalling molecules. In some cases they are simply molecules that arise from the incomplete metabolism of other secondary metabolites. 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol is found in Anethum graveolens, Arcangelisia gusanlung, Bacopa monnieri, Bletilla striata, Cucurbita pepo, Galeola faberi, Gymnadenia conopsea, Homo sapiens, Lupinus angustifolius, Dactylorhiza hatagirea, Oxalis pes-caprae, Populus laurifolia and Sorghum halepense. It was first documented in 2001 (PMID: 11766131). Based on a literature review very few articles have been published on 4-Hydroxybenzyl alcohol (PMID: 17984079) (PMID: 21500777) (PMID: 34065028) (PMID: 33930711).
