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.

Application


  • Homogeneous Gold Catalysis Using Complexes Recovered from Waste Electronic Equipment.: This research utilizes 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene in catalytic processes involving gold complexes reclaimed from electronic waste, presenting a sustainable approach in catalytic chemistry and highlighting the reuse of precious metals in industrial applications (McCarthy et al., 2022).

  • Sequential Ir/Cu-Mediated Method for the Meta-Selective C-H Radiofluorination of (Hetero)Arenes.: Demonstrates a technique for the meta-selective C-H radiofluorination involving 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene, offering a novel pathway for the synthesis of radio-labelled compounds used in PET imaging, which is crucial for medical diagnostics and research (Wright et al., 2021).

  • Synthesis and antioxidant activities of phenol derivatives from 1,6-bis(dimethoxyphenyl)hexane-1,6-dione.: Discusses the synthesis of new antioxidant compounds derived from 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene, underlining its role in developing therapeutic agents that could mitigate oxidative stress-related diseases (Artunc et al., 2020).

  • One-Step Synthesis of C(2v)-Symmetric Resorcin[4]arene Tetraethers.: This paper details a one-step synthesis method using 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene to create novel macrocyclic molecules, potentially useful in host-guest chemistry and molecular recognition, which are key areas in supramolecular chemistry and nanotechnology (Smith et al., 2020).
