CAS 1300-71-6
:Dimethylphenol
Description:
Dimethylphenol, with the CAS number 1300-71-6, refers to a group of chemical compounds derived from phenol, where two methyl groups are substituted on the aromatic ring. The most common isomers include 2,4-dimethylphenol and 2,6-dimethylphenol. These compounds are typically colorless to pale yellow liquids or solids with a characteristic phenolic odor. Dimethylphenols are known for their moderate solubility in water and higher solubility in organic solvents, making them versatile in various applications. They exhibit properties such as being weakly acidic and can participate in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. Dimethylphenols are primarily used as intermediates in the synthesis of agrochemicals, pharmaceuticals, and resins. Additionally, they can act as antioxidants and stabilizers in plastics and rubber. However, they can be toxic and irritating to the skin and eyes, necessitating careful handling and appropriate safety measures in industrial and laboratory settings. Environmental considerations are also important, as they can pose risks to aquatic life if released into water systems.
