Triphenylethanol, or 1,1,2-triphenylethanol, is an
organic compound with a
condensed structural formula of (C
6H
5)
2C(OH)CH
2C
6H
5, and is related to
triphenylethylene, from which it can be prepared by
hydration. It is the
structural analog of two
drugs, the never-marketed
antiestrogen
ethamoxytriphetol (MER-25)
[1]: 7 and the withdrawn
lipid-lowering agent
triparanol,
[2] as both contain the 1,1,2-triphenylethanol
moiety within their structure.
There are three isomeric compounds with a "triphenylethanol" structure:
