Name: 5-Isopropyl-2-methylphenol
Synonyms: Carvacrol; Isopropyl-o-cresol; Isothymol; 5-Isopropyl-o-cresol; Carvacrol
CAS Number: 499-75-2
MF: C10H14O MW: 150.22 g/mol
InChIKey: RECUKUPTGUEGMW-UHFFFAOYSA-N
IUPAC Name: 2-methyl-5-propan-2-ylphenol
SMILES: CC1=C(C=C(C=C1)C(C)C)O
Summary: Carvacrol is a phenol that is a natural monoterpene derivative of cymene. An inhibitor of bacterial growth, it is used as a food additive. Potent activator of the human ion channels transient receptor potential V3 (TRPV3) and A1 (TRPA1). It has a role as a volatile oil component, a flavouring agent, an antimicrobial agent, an agrochemical and a TRPA1 channel agonist. It is a member of phenols, a p-menthane monoterpenoid and a botanical anti-fungal agent. It derives from a hydride of a p-cymene.
