• Verwenden

  Disinfectant; phenolic resins; tricresyl phosphate; ore flotation; textile scouring agent; organic intermediate; manufacturing salicylaldehyde, coumarin, and herbicides; surfactant; synthetic food flavors (para isomer only); food antioxidant; dye, perfume, plastics, and resins manufacturing.

• Verwenden

  o-Cresol is used as a disinfectant and solvent. Lysol disinfectant is a 50% (v/v) mixed-cresol isomer in a soap emulsion formed on mixing with water. Besides disinfection products at solutions of 1–5%, the cresols are used as degreasing compounds, paintbrush cleaners, and additives in lubricating oils. Cresols were previously widely used for disinfection of poultry houses, but this use was discontinued because of their toxicity; they cause respiratory problems and abdominal edema in young chicks. o-Cresol has been used in synthetic resins, explosives, petroleum, photographic, paint, and agricultural industries.

• Verwenden

  o-Cresol is used mostly as an intermediate for the production of pesticides, epoxy resins, dyes, and pharmaceuticals, but also as a component of disinfectants and cleaning agents. o-Cresol is readily biodegradable and has a low bioaccumulation or geoaccumulation potential. Antiseptics; disinfectants; solvent; insecticides; resins; flame-retardant plasticizers

• Vorbereitung Methode

  Approximately 60% of o-cresol is obtained from coal-tar and crude oil by using classical techniques such as distillation, stripping, and liquid–liquid extraction. The remaining 40% is obtained synthetically by the alkylation of phenol with methanol. The cresols (cresylic acids) are methyl phenols and generally appear as a mixture of isomers. o-Cresol is a 2-methyl derivative of phenol and is prepared from o-toluic acid or obtained from coal tar or petroleum. Crude cresol is obtained by distilling “gray phenic acid” at a temperature of ≈180–201°C. o-Cresol may be separated from the crude or purified mixture by repeated fractional distillation in vacuo. It can also be prepared synthetically by diazotization of the specific toluidine or by fusion of the corresponding toluenesulfonic acid with sodium hydroxide.

• Air & Water Reaktionen

  Sensitive to light and air. Insoluble in water.

• Reaktivität anzeigen

  o-Cresol is incompatible with oxidizing agents and bases. Mixing o-Cresol with chlorosulfonic acid, nitric acid and oleum in a closed contained caused the temperature and pressure to increase.

• Hazard

  Questionable carcinogen.

• Health Hazard

  The chemical is rated as a very toxic compound with a probable oral lethal dose in humans of 50-500 mg/kg, or between 1 teaspoon and 1 ounce for a 70 kg (150 lb.) person. It is a strong dermal irritant and frequently causes dermatitis. Serious or fatal poisoning may result if large areas of skin are wet with cresol, o- and the substance is not removed immediately. Ingestion of even a small amount may cause paralysis and coma. It is corrosive to body tissues, with toxicity similar to phenol.

• Brandgefahr

  Fire may produce irritating or poisonous gases. Runoff from fire control water may give off poisonous gases. o-Cresol may burn but does not ignite readily. Container may explode in heat of fire. Slight explosion and fire hazard in the form of vapor when exposed to heat or flame. When heated to decomposition, o-Cresol emits highly toxic fumes. Reacts violently with nitric acid, oleum, and chlorosulfonic acid. Hazardous polymerization may not occur.

• Flammability and Explosibility

  Not classified

• Sicherheitsprofil

  Poison by ingestion, inhalation, subcutaneous, intravenous, and intraperitoneal routes. Moderately toxic by skin contact. A severe eye and skin irritant. Human mutation data reported. Questionable carcinogen with experimental neoplastigenic data. Flammable when exposed to heat, flame, or oxidants. To fight fire, water may be used to blanket fire; foam, fog, mist, dry chemical. See also other cresol entries and PHENOL.

• mögliche Exposition

  Cresol is used as a disinfectant and fumigant; as an ore flotation agent, and as an intermediate in the manufacture of chemicals, dyes, plastics, and antioxidants. A mixture of isomers is generally used; the concentrations of the components are determined by the source of the cresol.

• Source

  Detected in distilled water-soluble fractions of 87 octane gasoline (6.61 mg/L), 94 octane gasoline (0.57 mg/L), Gasohol (1.17 mg/L), No. 2 fuel oil (2.64 mg/L), jet fuel A (0.72 mg/L), diesel fuel (1.36 mg/L), and military jet fuel JP-4 (1.51 mg/L) (Potter, 1996). o-Cresol was also detected in 82% of 65 gasoline (regular and premium) samples (62 from Switzerland, 3 from Boston, MA). At 25 °C, concentrations were from 1.1–99 mg/L in gasoline and 70–6,600 μg/L in water-soluble fractions. Average concentrations were 18 mg/L in gasoline and 1.2 mg/L in watersoluble fractions (Schmidt et al., 2002).
  A high-temperature coal tar contained 2-methylphenol at an average concentration of 0.25 wt % (McNeil, 1983).
  Occurs naturally in white sandlewood, sour cherries, peppermint leaves (1–10 ppb), tarragon, asparagus shoots, tea leaves, coffee beans, Japanese privet, tomatoes, licorice roots, and African palm oil (Duke, 1992).
  Schauer et al. (2001) measured organic compound emission rates for volatile organic compounds, gas-phase semi-volatile organic compounds, and particle phase organic compounds from the residential (fireplace) combustion of pine, oak, and eucalyptus. The gas-phase emission rates of 2-methylphenol were 89.6 mg/kg of pine burned, 47.7 mg/kg of oak burned, and 37.8 mg/kg of eucalyptus burned. The particle-phase emission rates were 0.018 mg/kg of oak burned and 0.006 mg/kg of eucalyptus burned.

• Environmental Fate

  Biological. Bacterial degradation of 2-methylphenol may introduce a hydroxyl group producing 3-methylcatechol (Chapman, 1972). In phenol-acclimated activated sludge, metabolites identified include 3-methylcatechol, 4-methylresorcinol, methylhydroquinone, α-ketobutyric acid, dihydroxybenzaldehyde, and trihydroxytoluene (Masunaga et al., 1986).
  Chloroperoxidase, a fungal enzyme isolated from Caldariomyces fumago, reacted with 2- methylphenol forming 2-methyl-4-chlorophenol (38% yield) and 2-methyl-6-chlorophenol (Wannstedt et al., 1990).
  Heukelekian and Rand (1955) reported a 5-d BOD value of 1.70 g/g which is 67.5% of the ThOD value of 2.72 g/g. In activated sludge inoculum, 95.0% COD removal was achieved. The average rate of biodegradation was 54.0 mg COD/g?h (Pitter, 1976).
  Soil. In laboratory microcosm experiments kept under aerobic conditions, half-lives of 5.1 and 1.6 d were reported for 2-methylphenol in an acidic clay soil (<1% organic matter) and slightly basic sandy loam soil (3.25% organic matter) (Loehr and Matthews, 1992).
  Surface Water. In river water, the half-life of 2-methylphenol was 2 and 4 d at 20 and 4 °C, respectively (Ludzack and Ettinger, 1960).
  Groundwater. Nielsen et al. (1996) studied the degradation of 2-methylphenol in a shallow, glaciofluvial, unconfined sandy aquifer in Jutland, Denmark. As part of the in situ microcosm study, a cylinder that was open at the bottom and screened at the top was installed through a cased borehole approximately 5 m below grade. Five liters of water was aerated with atmospheric air to ensure aerobic conditions were maintained. Groundwater was analyzed weekly for approximately 3 months to determine 2-methylphenol concentrations with time. The experimentally determined first-order biodegradation rate constant and corresponding half-life were 0.2/d and 3.5 d, respectively. Groundwater contaminated with phenol and other phenols degraded in a methanogenic aquifer to methane and carbon dioxide. These results could not be duplicated in the laboratory utilizing an anaerobic digester (Godsy et al., 1983).
  Photolytic. Sunlight irradiation of 2-methylphenol and nitrogen oxides in air yielded the following gas-phase products: acetaldehyde, formaldehyde, pyruvic acid, peroxyacetyl nitrate, nitrocresols, and trace levels of nitric acid and methyl nitrate. Particulate phase products were also identified and these include 2-hydroxy-3-nitrotoluene, 2-hydroxy-5-nitrotoluene, 2-hydroxy-3,5- dinitrotoluene, and tentatively identified nitrocresol isomers (Grosjean, 1984). Absorbs UV light at a maximum wavelength of 270 nm (Dohnal and Fenclová, 1995).
  Chemical/Physical. Ozonation of an aqueous solution containing 2-methylphenol (200 to 600 mg/L) yielded formic, acetic, propionic, glyoxylic, oxalic, and salicylic acids (Wang, 1990). In a different experiment, however, an aqueous solution containing 2-methylphenol (1 mM) reacted with ozone (11.7 mg/min) forming 2-methylmuconic acid and hydrogen peroxide as end products. The proposed pathway of degradation involved electrophilic aromatic substitution by the first ozone molecule followed by a 1,3-dipolar addition of the second ozone molecule to the cleaved ring (Beltran et al., 1990).
