5-Methylresorcinol is a chemical compound, specifically a resorcinol derivative with a methyl group attached at the 5-position. It's also known as 3,5-dihydroxytoluene. This compound is used in various applications, including analytical chemistry, the production of pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, dyes, and pigments.
Applications:Analytical Chemistry: Used as an analytical chemical for various purposes.
Pharmaceuticals: Can be a raw material for producing pharmaceuticals.
Cosmetics: Used in cosmetics and haircare products, including hair dyes and colorants. Dyes and Pigments: Used in the production of dyes and pigments.
Fur Dyes: Used in the production of fur dyes.
Photo-chemicals: Used in the production of photo-chemicals. Oxidase Inhibiting Activity: Some studies suggest that 5-alkylresorcinol, including 5-methylresorcinol, has oxidase inhibiting activity, potentially useful in food processing and storage.
Ferrocene Integration: It's used in the synthesis of organic aerogels, where ferrocene units are incorporated, and it's been found that the amount of ferrocene that can be integrated is limited by the low solubility of ferrocene in the 5-methylresorcinol-formaldehyde gel system. Inhibition of Human Carbonic Anhydrase (hCA): Research has shown that 5-methylresorcinol and its isomers can inhibit hCA-I, a target for many drugs
