Veratrole alcohol (veratryl alcohol) is an organic compound related to veratrole and also to benzyl alcohol. It can be obtained by reduction of veratraldehyde.^[2] Veratrole alcohol is the raw material for the synthesis of cyclotriveratrylene which is used in host–guest chemistry. It is a secondary metabolite of some white rot fungi and is believed to play a role in their degradation of lignin.^[3]
