GENERAL
DESCRIPTION & APPLICATIONS
|
Cresidine is
the trivial name for methyl anisidine or methoxy toluidine.
There are three isomers, ortho-,
meta-, and para-cresidine. The
prefix indicate methyl group positions relative to the
methoxy group on the same benzene ring. Aromatic
amines Cresidine, anisidine, toluidine are all homologous to aniline,
the simplest aromatic amine. Aromatic
amines are the fundamental
materials in the dye manufacturing industry. They are
also important in the manufacture of
rubber-processing chemicals, explosives, plastics, antioxidants, drugs, pesticides and other
chemical compounds.
Aromatic
amines take part in many kinds of chemical reactions and offer many industrial
applications.
