Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name2-Ethyl toluene
Description1-Ethyl-2-methylbenzene, also known as O-ethyltoluene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as toluenes. Toluenes are compounds containing a benzene ring which bears a methane group. 1-Ethyl-2-methylbenzene is possibly neutral. O-ethyltoluene is one of three isomers of ethyltoluene, the other two isomers being 3-ethyltoluene and 4-ethyltoluene. All are colorless liquids and all are used for the production of specialty polystyrenes. Ethyltoluene is produced by ethylation of toluene. 1-Ethyl-2-methylbenzene is volatilized during the combustion of cannabis and it can be found in cannabis smoke.
