| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Synthesis]
2-bromo-5-methyl-phenol can be synthesized through several methods. One
common method involves the bromination of 5-methylphenol (m-cresol)
using bromine in the presence of a catalyst such as iron powder. The reaction typically occurs under controlled temperature conditions to ensure selective bromination at the desired position. |
