What is xylene CAS 1330-20-7?
Xylene is a collective term for three isomers with the same chemical formula (C₈H₁₀):
o-xylene (ortho-xylene)
m-xylene (meta-xylene)
p-xylene (para-xylene)
In industry, xylene usually refers to a mixture of these isomers, sometimes called mixed xylene.
What is o-xylene?
O-xylene is a specific isomer of xylene.
The two methyl groups are located in adjacent positions on the benzene ring.
O-xylene has different physical properties (e.g., boiling point) compared to m-xylene and p-xylene.
Orthoxylene has specific industrial uses, especially in the production of phthalic anhydride.
