Application
m-Cresol can be used as a starting material to synthesize:
- Thymol via isopropylation reaction with 2-propanol in the presence of an acid catalyst.[1]
- Terpolymeric resin by an acid-catalyzed polycondensation reaction with hexamine and formaldehyde.
- 4,7-Dimethylcoumarin via modified Pechmann condensation reaction with ethyl acetoacetate.
