2,3-Dimethoxytoluene

Description:

2,3-Dimethoxytoluene, with the CAS number 4463-33-6, is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic structure, which includes a toluene backbone substituted with two methoxy groups at the 2 and 3 positions. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and is known for its pleasant aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic nature. 2,3-Dimethoxytoluene is often used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemical compounds. Its properties include moderate volatility and a relatively low boiling point compared to other aromatic compounds. Additionally, it may exhibit reactivity typical of methoxy-substituted aromatics, such as electrophilic substitution reactions. Safety data should be consulted, as with all chemical substances, to understand its handling, storage, and potential hazards.
