1,2,4,5-tetramethoxybenzene

Description:
1,2,4,5-Tetramethoxybenzene, with the CAS number 2441-46-5, is an organic compound belonging to the class of methoxy-substituted benzenes. It features a benzene ring with four methoxy (-OCH3) groups attached at the 1, 2, 4, and 5 positions, which significantly influences its chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow solid at room temperature and is known for its aromatic characteristics. The presence of multiple methoxy groups enhances its solubility in organic solvents while also affecting its reactivity, making it less electrophilic compared to unsubstituted benzene. 1,2,4,5-Tetramethoxybenzene can participate in various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitution and oxidation, although the methoxy groups can direct the reactivity and influence the formation of products. Additionally, this compound may exhibit interesting optical properties and potential applications in organic synthesis and materials science. Safety data should be consulted for handling, as with all chemical substances, to ensure proper precautions are taken.
