Product Description

Products Description of o-Cresol CAS#95-48-7

o-Cresol, also known as o-cresol, is a colorless liquid or crystal. It is miscible with alcohols, ethers, and chloroform. It is soluble in sodium hydroxide solution and slightly soluble in water. It has a phenolic odor. o-Cresol is used in the manufacture of the herbicide 2,4-D, as a diluent for sebacic acid, a disinfectant, and a pharmaceutical intermediate. It is also used in the production of resins, plasticizers, fragrances, dyes, and as an analytical reagent for testing nitrates and arsenic.

Product Application of o-Cresol CAS#95-48-7

o-Cresol is a core intermediate for herbicides (2,4-D), coumarins and pharmaceuticals. It is also used in resins, plasticizers, fragrances, dyes, disinfectants and food flavorings, and functions as an analytical reagent for nitrates and arsenic detection.
