Benzene, 1-(1-methylethyl)-4-(2-methyl-2-propenyl)- (9CI)

Description:

Benzene, 1-(1-methylethyl)-4-(2-methyl-2-propenyl)-, commonly referred to as a substituted benzene compound, features a benzene ring with two distinct substituents: an isopropyl group and an allyl group. This compound is characterized by its aromatic structure, which contributes to its stability and unique reactivity patterns. The presence of the isopropyl group introduces steric hindrance, while the allyl group can participate in various chemical reactions, including polymerization and electrophilic substitution. The compound is typically a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor, and it is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents. Its chemical behavior is influenced by the electron-donating effects of the isopropyl group and the electron-withdrawing nature of the allyl group, which can affect its reactivity in organic synthesis. Safety considerations are important, as many benzene derivatives can be toxic or carcinogenic, necessitating proper handling and storage protocols in laboratory and industrial settings.
