Description3-Methylcatechol, also known as 2,3-toluenediol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as catechols. Catechols are compounds containing a 1,2-benzenediol moiety. 3-Methylcatechol is a primary metabolite. Primary metabolites are metabolically or physiologically essential metabolites. They are directly involved in an organism’s growth, development or reproduction. 3-Methylcatechol is found in Apis cerana and Verbascum lychnitis. 3-Methylcatechol was first documented in 2011 (PMID: 20582618). Based on a literature review a significant number of articles have been published on 3-Methylcatechol (PMID: 22854893) (PMID: 23250222) (PMID: 32168145) (PMID: 31850419) (PMID: 31811044).
