Benzyl alcohol is used effectively for treating lice infestations as the active ingredient in lotion shampoo with 5% benzyl alcohol. [13] Benzyl alcohol is an ingredient used in the manufacture of soaps, topical creams, skin lotions, shampoos, and facial cleansers and is popular due to its anti-bacterial and anti-fungal properties.
In organic chemistry, benzoyl (/ ˈ b ɛ n z oʊ ɪ l /, BENZ-oh-il) [1] is the functional group with the formula −COC 6 H 5 and structure −C(=O)−C 6 H 5. [2] [3] It can be viewed as benzaldehyde missing one hydrogen. The benzoyl group has a mass of 105 amu. The term "benzoyl" should not be confused with benzyl, which has the formula − ...
Benzyl group and derivatives: Benzyl group, benzyl radical, benzyl amine, benzyl bromide, benzyl chloroformate, and benzyl methyl ether. R = heteroatom, alkyl, aryl, allyl etc. or other substituents. In organic chemistry, benzyl is the substituent or molecular fragment possessing the structure R−CH 2 −C 6 H 5.
Benzoic acid (/ b ɛ n ˈ z oʊ. ɪ k /) is a white (or colorless) solid organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 COOH, whose structure consists of a benzene ring (C 6 H 6) with a carboxyl (−C(=O)OH) substituent.
English: This is the two-dimensional chemical structure of benzylacetone with the alpha and beta positions labeled in blue text. The drawing was done in ACD/ChemSketch v12.01 (using standard ACS structure drawing style) and exported as a Windows Metafile (WMF).

Benzyl acetate is an organic ester with the molecular formula CH 3 C(O)OCH 2 C 6 H 5. It is formed by the condensation of benzyl alcohol and acetic acid . Similar to most other esters, it possesses a sweet and pleasant aroma, owing to which, it finds applications in personal hygiene and health care products.
Benzyl alcohol O-benzoyltransferase (EC 2.3.1.196, benzoyl-CoA:benzyl alcohol benzoyltransferase, benzoyl-CoA:benzyl alcohol/phenylethanol benzoyltransferase, benzoyl-coenzyme A:benzyl alcohol benzoyltransferase, benzoyl-coenzyme A:phenylethanol benzoyltransferase) is an enzyme with systematic name benzoyl-CoA:benzyl alcohol O-benzoyltransferase.
One of the earliest accounts of the tetrahedral intermediate came from Rainer Ludwig Claisen in 1887. [2] In the reaction of benzyl benzoate with sodium methoxide, and methyl benzoate with sodium benzyloxide, he observed a white precipitate which under acidic conditions yields benzyl benzoate, methyl benzoate, methanol, and benzyl alcohol.
