:Phenol, 5-ethoxy-2-methyl-
Description:
Phenol, 5-ethoxy-2-methyl- is an organic compound characterized by a phenolic structure, which includes a hydroxyl group (-OH) attached to a benzene ring. The presence of an ethoxy group (-OCH2CH3) at the 5-position and a methyl group (-CH3) at the 2-position of the benzene ring contributes to its unique chemical properties. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits moderate solubility in water due to the hydrophilic nature of the hydroxyl group. Phenol derivatives often display antimicrobial and antioxidant properties, making them of interest in various applications, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, the presence of substituents can influence the compound's reactivity, boiling point, and melting point. Safety considerations are important, as phenolic compounds can be toxic and irritant, necessitating proper handling and storage protocols in laboratory and industrial settings.
