6-Amino-m-cresol Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Beige to brown crystal powder

Uses

2-Amino-5-methylphenol was used in the synthesis of tridentate Schiff base ligand and novel non-metallocene catalysts with phenoxy-imine ligands.

General Description

2-Amino-5-methylphenol reacts with bovine hemoglobin to form 2-amino-4,4α-dihydro-4α-7-dimethyl-3H-phenoxazine-3-one, which inhibits the proliferation of Poliovirus in Vero cells. It is converted to dihydrophenoxazinone by purified human hemoglobin.

Purification Methods

Crystallise it from H2O, 50% EtOH, or toluene. [Beilstein
