Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name3,4,5-Trimethylphenol
Description3,4,5-Trimethylphenol, also known as 3,4,5-hemimellitenol, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as para-cresols. Para cresols are compounds containing a para-cresol moiety, which consists of a benzene ring bearing one hydroxyl group at ring positions 1 and a methyl group at position 4. 3,4,5-Trimethylphenol is an aromatic compound and a trimethylated derivative of Phenol. Phenol is a volatile white crystalline solid. Phenol was first extracted from coal tar, but today it is produced at a large scale (about 7 billion kg/year) from petroleum-derived feedstocks. It is primarily used to synthesize plastics and related materials. 3,4,5-Trimethylphenol is a reactive species toward oxidation, for instance the Teuber reaction, 3,4,5-Trimethylphenol can be oxidized to quinone. 3,4,5-Trimethylphenol has been detected as a volatile component of cannabis samples obtained in police seizures (PMID: 26657499 ).
