Diisopropylbenzenes

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The diisopropylbenzenes constitute a group of aromatic hydrocarbons, whose chemical structure consists of a benzene ring with two isopropyl groups (−CH(CH3)2) as a substituents. Through their different arrangement, they form three structural isomers with the molecular formula C12H18.
