CAS 3209-13-0: 3-Methoxy-5-methylphenol

Description: 3-Methoxy-5-methylphenol, also known as thymol methyl ether, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a methoxy group (-OCH₃) and a methyl group (-CH₃) attached to a phenolic ring. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water. The presence of the methoxy and methyl groups influences its chemical reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various applications, including as a flavoring agent, fragrance, and in the synthesis of other organic compounds. Additionally, 3-Methoxy-5-methylphenol may exhibit antimicrobial properties, which can be beneficial in certain industrial and pharmaceutical applications. Safety data indicates that, like many organic compounds, it should be handled with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes. Proper storage in a cool, dry place away from incompatible substances is recommended to maintain its stability and efficacy.
