In organic chemistry, a biphenol refers to compounds with the formula (C6H4OH)2. Such compounds formally result from the coupling of two phenols. All are colorless solids with the formula (C6H4OH)2. Three symmetrical isomers of biphenol exist:

Name Registry number PubChem Melting point (°C)
2,2'-Biphenol 1806-29-7 109
3,3'-Biphenol 612-76-0 124.8
4,4'-Biphenol 92-88-6 283

Additionally, three unsymmetrical isomers of biphenols exist

Name Registry number PubChem Melting point (°C)
2,3'-Biphenol 31835-45-7
2,4'-Biphenol 611-62-1 162–163
3,4'-Biphenol 18855-13-5 190
