Cannabis Compound Identification
Common Name2,3-Dimethylphenol
Description2,3-Dimethylphenol, also known as 2,3-Xylenol or 3-hydroxy-O-xylene, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as ortho-cresols. These are organic compounds containing an ortho-cresol moiety, which consists of a benzene bearing one hydroxyl group at ring positions 1 and 2, respectively. 2,3-Dimethylphenol is one of the six structural isomers of dimethylphenol or xylenol wherein two methyl groups are substituted at different positions of the phenol ring. 2,3-Dimethylphenol can also be classified as a xylenol. The six isomeric xylenols have similar physical properties. 2,3-Dimethylphenol exists as a crystalline solid that is slightly soluble in water. 2,3-Dimethylphenol and other xylenols are traditionally extracted from coal tar. Coal tar is the thick dark liquid that is produced in the production of coke or coal gas from coal. Xylenols are used in the manufacture of antioxidants. 2,3-Dimethylphenol is a phenolic tasting compound with a chemical, musty odor. 2,3-Dimethylphenol has been detected, but not quantified in beer, lettuce, arabica coffee and tea which makes 2,3-dimethylphenol a potential biomarker for the consumption of these foods. Dimethylphenols are found in cannabis smoke. 2,3-Dimethylphenol is formed during the combustion of cannabis ( Ref:DOI ).
