1. Introduction of Thymol Thymol (CAS No.89-83-8), it also can be called 2-Isopropyl-5-methyl phenol ; 5-Methyl-2-(1-methylethyl)phenol ; 1-Hydroxy-5-methyl-2-isopropylbenzene ; 1-Methyl-3-hydroxy-4-isopropylbenzene ; 2-Hydroxy-1-isopropyl-4-methylbenzene ; 3-Hydroxy-1-methyl-4-isopropylbenzene ; 3-Hydroxy-p-cymene ; 3-Methyl-6-isopropylphenol ; 3-p-cymenol . It is white crystals or powder with a pungent odour. It is the active antiseptic ingredient in the toothpaste Euthymol. 2.
