2,4-Dimethylphenol
2,4-Dimethylphenol (CAS: 105-67-9), also called 2,4-xylenol, is a methylated phenol supplied as a colorless to light yellow liquid that may crystallize at low temperature. It is an intermediate for antioxidants, agrochemicals, disinfectants, and specialty resins, and serves as a building block for substituted aromatics in fragrance and dye chemistry. The phenolic hydroxyl and activated ring positions support alkylation, acylation, and condensation chemistry. The material should be stored protected from air and light to limit discoloration. Customers select it where an alkylated phenol intermediate with reliable reactivity is required.
• Antioxidants: an intermediate for phenolic antioxidants used in fuels, lubricants, and polymers.
• Agrochemicals and disinfectants: a building block for crop-protection actives and antiseptic products.
• Resins: used in specialty resin and coating intermediate synthesis.
• Chemistry: phenolic OH and activated ring positions support alkylation, acylation, and condensation.
