Durene

Description:
Durene, also known as 1,2,4,5-tetramethylbenzene, is an aromatic hydrocarbon characterized by its four methyl groups attached to a benzene ring. It is a colorless liquid at room temperature and has a distinctive sweet odor. Durene is insoluble in water but soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether. Its molecular formula is C10H14, and it has a relatively high boiling point compared to other simple hydrocarbons, reflecting its stable aromatic structure. Durene is primarily used in the production of various chemicals and as a solvent in organic synthesis. It can also serve as a precursor for the synthesis of certain polymers and resins. Due to its aromatic nature, durene can participate in electrophilic substitution reactions, making it a valuable compound in organic chemistry. However, it should be handled with care, as it may pose health risks upon exposure, including irritation to the skin and respiratory system. Proper safety measures should be taken when working with this substance in laboratory or industrial settings.
