2,4,6-Trimethylphenol is a non-volatile organic compound that has been shown to have thermal expansion properties when mixed with trifluoromethanesulfonic acid. It reacts with hydrogen ions to form 2,4,6-trimethylphenol chloride and hydrogen gas. This reaction mechanism has been determined using FTIR spectroscopy. The chlorine atom in the molecule is cationic and can be used as a catalyst for esterification reactions. 2,4,6-Trimethylphenol also forms esters with fatty acids and can be used as a solid catalyst in the chlorination of fatty acid esters.

2,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol is a persulfate reductant that has been shown to have peroxidase-like activity. This compound also has been shown to induce lung toxicity in animals, as well as exhibiting tumorigenicity. 2,5-Di-tert-butyl-4-methoxyphenol is an industrial chemical that is used as a catalyst in the production of polymers and dyes. It is also used in the manufacture of herbicides, plastics, and pharmaceuticals. This compound reacts with a number of oxidizing agents to form reactive radicals such as hydroxyl radicals and hydrogen peroxide. These radicals can then react with other substances present in the environment to produce toxic byproducts such as trifluoromethanesulfonic acid (TFMS). The redox potential for this compound is -0.8 V vs NHE at pH 7.

4-(Dodecyloxy)-phenol is a polymerizable monomer with a tetradentate structure. It has been shown to be photostable in the presence of ultraviolet and visible light, as well as stable to heat denaturation. 4-(Dodecyloxy)-phenol is used for the synthesis of polymers with mesomorphic properties. The compound can also be used as a nucleophile in organic chemistry reactions, including esterification and hydrolysis reactions. 4-(Dodecyloxy)-phenol can be synthesized from phenolates or by hydrolyzing dodecanol with sodium hydroxide in the presence of hydrochloric acid. 4-(Dodecyloxy)-phenol has been shown to have high polarizability, which facilitates its interaction with metal ions.
