| | Dimethoxybenzene Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | clear colorless to slightly brown liquid | | Chemical Properties | m-Dimethoxybenzene has a very powerful sweet-earthy, intensely, nut-like aroma. | | Occurrence | Reported found in Gruyere de Comte, blue cheeses, filberts and cognac | | Uses | Organic intermediate, flavoring.
| | Uses | 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene is used for the preparation of oxathiane spiroketal donors. It is also used for the formation of pi- and O-ylidic complexes with dichlorocarbene. Further, it acts as a flavoring agent. | | Definition | ChEBI: 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene is a member of methoxybenzenes. | | Preparation | From resorcinol by methylation using dimethyl sulfate and alka | | Taste threshold values | Chemical, medicinal, spice, cooling root beer-like. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 55, p. 991, 1990 DOI: 10.1021/jo00290a033 | | General Description | 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene can be used as a flavoring agent in the food industry. It is reported to be found in the volatiles of port wine and Roquefort cheese. | | Purification Methods | Extract it with aqueous NaOH, and water, then dry it. Fractionally distil it from BaO or Na.
