1-tert-Butyl-4-ethylbenzene

Description:
1-tert-Butyl-4-ethylbenzene, with the CAS number 7364-19-4, is an organic compound belonging to the class of alkyl-substituted benzenes. It features a tert-butyl group and an ethyl group attached to a benzene ring, specifically at the 1 and 4 positions, respectively, making it a para-substituted aromatic compound. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is relatively hydrophobic and has low solubility in water, but it is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. The presence of bulky alkyl groups contributes to its unique physical properties, including a higher boiling point compared to simpler aromatic compounds. 1-tert-Butyl-4-ethylbenzene is primarily used in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of various chemicals. Its stability and reactivity can be influenced by the steric hindrance introduced by the tert-butyl group, making it an interesting subject of study in organic chemistry. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
