ulosantoibutan

Ulosantoibutan, also known as 4-tert-butylphenol, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C10H14O. It is a derivative of phenol, where the hydrogen atom at the para position is replaced by a tert-butyl group. This compound is a white crystalline solid at room temperature, with a melting point of approximately 110°C. Ulosantoibutan is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various organic compounds, including pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and dyes. Its chemical properties make it useful in the production of antioxidants, stabilizers, and other specialty chemicals. The compound is typically synthesized through the alkylation of phenol with tert-butanol in the presence of an acid catalyst. Due to its potential health and environmental impacts, the use of ulosantoibutan is regulated in many countries, and its production and disposal require careful consideration of safety measures.
