| Common Name | 2,6-Dimethoxy-4-methylphenol |
|---|
| Description | 2,6-Dimethoxy-4-methylphenol, also known as 2,6-dimethoxy-p-cresol or 4-methyl-2,6-dimethoxyphenol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as methoxyphenols. Methoxyphenols are compounds containing a methoxy group attached to the benzene ring of a phenol moiety. 2,6-Dimethoxy-4-methylphenol is an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). 2,6-Dimethoxy-4-methylphenol is a caramel, eugenol, and medicinal tasting compound. Outside of the human body, 2,6-Dimethoxy-4-methylphenol has been detected, but not quantified in, fishes. This could make 2,6-dimethoxy-4-methylphenol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. |
