What is 2,6-Dimethylphenol?
2,6-Xylenol (or 2,6-dimethylphenol, DMP) is one of the six isomers of xylenol. It is a colorless to almost white crystalline solid with sweet tar smell. Soluble in ethanol, ether, chloroform, benzene and alkali solution, slightly soluble in water. It is incompatible with alkali, acyl chloride, acid anhydride and oxidant. Corrosive to steel, brass, copper and copper alloys.
2,6-Dimethylphenol is a monomer for industrial production of polyoxyxylene, which is synthesized by oxidative coupling reaction between carbon and oxygen. It is reported that this substance was found in smoked fatty fish, cooked cured pork, rum, malt whisky, Japanese whisky, coffee, katsuobushi (dried bonito) and lettuce (Valerianella locusta).
Phenol or o-cresol is used as raw material to conduct gas-phase catalytic reaction with methanol, and then the product is purified by distillation. The purity of the product can reach more than 99%.
2,6-Dimethylphenol Uses
For organic synthesis, antisepsis and disinfection, medicine, solvent and antioxidant
- Like other xylenol compounds, 2,6-dimethylphenol is used to synthesize antioxidant compounds due to the phenol part of its structure.
- The antiarrhythmic drug slow heart rhythm can be prepared by hydroxypropylation, oxidation, condensation, hydrogenation and salification of 2,6-xylenol.
- 2,6-Dimethylphenol is generally used as monomer for polymerization in industry. It is used in the production of polyphenylene ether resin, photographic agent, pesticide, polyester and polyether resin.

Associated Polymers
2,6-Xylenol is a monomer of poly (p-phenyl ether) engineering resin developed by carbon oxygen oxidative coupling. Carbon carbon dimerization is additionally possible. In one research study, 2,6-xylenol was oxidized by iodobenzene diacetate as well as phenol was five times excessive.
In the initial step of the suggested response mechanism, the acetyl group in the iodine compound is changed by phenol. The facility is broken down right into aryl anions and phenoxy residues. The two aryl groups recombine to form a new carbon covalent bond, and after that shed two protons in the re aromatization step. As a result of one-step 4-electron oxidation, the straight response product is biphenyl quinone. However, biphenol compounds can be synthesized by disproportionation of quinone with existing xylenol. In this reaction series, phenol is oxidized by high valent iodine, which itself will certainly be decreased to benzene iodine.
