Chemical Structure

4-Ethyl-3-methoxy-2-methylphenol CAS 154492-36-1 chemical structure

Description

Structurally, 4-Ethyl-3-methoxy-2-methylphenol (C10H14O2) contains a carboxylic acid group, a hydroxyl group, an ether linkage, an aromatic ring system. The molecule exhibits a degree of unsaturation (DBE) of 4.0, corresponding to approximately 4 ring(s) or double-bond equivalent(s). With a molecular weight of 166.22 g/mol, it falls into the medium-molecular-weight range. The high carbon-to-hydrogen ratio imparts good lipophilicity, allowing liquid-liquid extraction with non-polar solvents such as n-hexane or ethyl acetate.
