CAS 5875-45-6: 2,5-Di-tert-butylphenol

Description: 2,5-Di-tert-butylphenol is an organic compound characterized by its phenolic structure, featuring two tert-butyl groups attached to the 2 and 5 positions of the benzene ring. This compound is typically a white to light yellow solid at room temperature and is known for its antioxidant properties, making it useful in various industrial applications, particularly in the stabilization of polymers and plastics against oxidative degradation. It has a relatively high melting point and is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water. The presence of the bulky tert-butyl groups contributes to its steric hindrance, which influences its reactivity and stability. Additionally, 2,5-Di-tert-butylphenol exhibits low toxicity, but like many phenolic compounds, it should be handled with care due to potential skin and eye irritation. Its chemical structure allows it to act as a radical scavenger, which is beneficial in preventing the deterioration of materials exposed to heat and light.
