4-Methylanisole Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Description

p-Methylanisole has a pungent odor suggestive of ylang-ylang. May be prepared by methylation of p-cresol.

Chemical Properties

colourless liquid

Occurrence

Reported found in the oils of ylang-ylang, cananga and flowers of Mimusops elengi L. Also reported found in tomato, blue and Camembert cheese, starfruit, buckwheat, rooibus tea (Aspalathus linearis) and tapereba (Spondias lutea).

Uses

4-Methylanisole was used to prepare 5-methoxy-1,8-dimethyltetralin. It was also used as the solubilizate molecule to study the site of incorporation of solubilizates in sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) micellar systems.

Preparation

By methylation of p-cresol.

General Description

4-Methylanisole is an odorant benzenoid belonging to the group of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). It can contribute to the floral scent of the plants. 4-Methylanisole is typically a lignin-derived bio-oil that is also a major ingredient of certain food products.

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by ingestion. A skin irritant. Flammable liquid when exposed to heat, sparks, or flame. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating fumes.

Purification Methods

Dissolve 4-methyl anisole in diethyl ether, wash it with M NaOH, water, dry (Na2CO3), evaporate and distil it under vacuum. The picrate has m 103o (from aqueous EtOH). [Beilstein 6 IV 2098.]
