Application

  • Removal of phenolic compounds from aqueous solutions using poly (styrene-co-divinylbenzene) functionalized with aminophosphonic acid: This research explores the effectiveness of specific polymer adsorbents in removing 2,3-dimethylphenol from water (CM Davidescu et al., 2014).
  • Adsorption of phenol or phenol derivatives onto styrene-1%(15%) divinylbenzene polymeric adsorbents functionalized with aminopropyl (benzyl) phosphonic: Focuses on the removal of 2,3-dimethylphenol from aqueous solutions, highlighting the efficiency of newly developed adsorbents (R Ardelean et al., 2016).
  • Carpe diene! Europium-catalyzed and rearrangements of aryl-pentadienyl ethers: Describes a study where 2,3-dimethylphenol was used to test the catalytic properties of Europium in organic reactions (M Kaiser et al., 2023).
