Phenol, 4-methyl-2-octyl-

Description:
Phenol, 4-methyl-2-octyl- (CAS 886-00-0) is an organic compound characterized by its phenolic structure, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring. This compound features a branched octyl chain and a methyl group at specific positions on the aromatic ring, contributing to its hydrophobic properties. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive odor. The presence of the hydroxyl group imparts some degree of polarity, allowing for hydrogen bonding, which can influence its solubility in various solvents. Phenol derivatives like this one are often used in the synthesis of various chemicals, including surfactants, antioxidants, and plasticizers. Additionally, its structure may confer biological activity, making it of interest in pharmacology and toxicology. However, like many phenolic compounds, it may exhibit toxicity and environmental persistence, necessitating careful handling and assessment of its ecological impact.
