Overview

Toluene is an air pollutant widely used as an organic solvent in industrial production and emitted by fossil fuel combustion. It is a highly flammable and commonly used industrial chemical with severe health consequences on humans upon exposure and ingestion. Toluene has central nervous system depressant effects.

Effects

Toluene has a complex mechanism of action and broad behavioral effects, among which memory impairment is reported consistently. Toluene was oxidized by [(N4Py)Fe(IV)(O)](2+) in the presence of HClO4 in acetonitrile (MeCN) to yield a stoichiometric amount of benzyl alcohol.

Toluene has been used as void volume (zero retention) marker since the inception of hydrophilic interaction chromatography (HILIC) Toluene is a non-classical hallucinogen drug through activation of 5-HT.
