Benzene, [(4-methyl-3-pentenyl)oxy]-

Description:

Benzene, [(4-methyl-3-pentenyl)oxy]- (CAS 88626-76-0) is an organic compound characterized by its aromatic benzene ring substituted with a 4-methyl-3-pentenyl ether group. This structure imparts unique chemical properties, including a relatively high degree of stability due to the resonance of the benzene ring. The presence of the alkyl chain contributes to its hydrophobic nature, making it less soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. The compound may exhibit moderate volatility and can participate in various chemical reactions typical of both aromatic compounds and ethers, such as electrophilic substitution and nucleophilic reactions. Its potential applications may include use as a solvent, intermediate in organic synthesis, or in the formulation of fragrances and flavorings. Safety considerations are important, as compounds with similar structures can be toxic or carcinogenic, necessitating proper handling and storage protocols. Overall, the compound's unique structure and properties make it of interest in both industrial and research contexts.
