Description

Pseudocumene, also known as 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene, is a colorless, flammable liquid with a characteristic aromatic odor. It is a naturally occurring compound found in crude oil and coal tar. Pseudocumene is a key intermediate in the synthesis of various chemicals, including pharmaceuticals, dyes, and polymers. It can be synthesized through various methods, including alkylation of toluene or benzene with methanol or dimethyl ether. The compound is also studied due to its potential environmental effects. Pseudocumene is a volatile organic compound that can be released into the atmosphere. Research focuses on understanding its fate and transport in the environment, its impact on human health, and its potential for bioremediation.'
