| 3,5-Dimethoxytoluene Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | Clear colorless to yellow liquid | Uses | 3,5-Dimethoxytoluene (DMT) may be used in the synthesis of 3,5-dimethoxybenzoic acid by oxidation and 2-methoxy-6-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone by catalytic oxidation with hydrogen peroxide (H2O2)/methyltrioxorhenium (CH3ReO3) in dimethyl carbonate (DMC). | Definition | ChEBI: 3,5-dimethoxytoluene is a member of the class of toluenes that is toluene in which the hydrogens at positions 3 and 5 have been replaced by methoxy groups. It is the major scent compound of many rose varieties. It has a role as a fragrance and a plant metabolite. It is a member of toluenes and a member of methoxybenzenes. | Synthesis Reference(s) | Organic Syntheses, Coll. Vol. 6, p. 859, 1988 The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 70, p. 3275, 2005 DOI: 10.1021/jo050075r | General Description | 3,5-Dimethoxytoluene (DMT) is a methoxylated phenolic derivative. It is reported to be one of the main constituent of the floral volatiles in different rose varieties. It has been biosynthesized from orcinol by two successive methylation catalyzed by O-methyltransferases (OMTs). The features of its aerobic oxidation with metal/bromide catalysts have been investigated. |
