Metabolite Identification
Common Name4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethylbutyl)-phenol
Description4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethylbutyl)-phenol is manufactured via a catalytic reaction of phenol with diisobutylene. It is a member of the class of compounds known as phenylpropanes. Phenylpropanes are organic compounds that contain a phenylpropane moiety. 4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethylbutyl)-phenol can be found primarily in feces and urine. Within the cell, 4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethylbutyl)-phenol is primarily located in the membrane (predicted from logP). It is a non-carcinogenic (not listed by IARC) potentially toxic compound. 4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethylbutyl)-phenol is biodegradable, and in the surface layer of natural waters, 30% of OP can be degraded within one day. 4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethylbutyl)-phenol is acutely very toxic to aquatic organisms and may cause long-term adverse effects in the aquatic environment. It is not acutely toxic to human health, but it is slightly irritating to the skin and highly irritating to the eyes. It is not genotoxic, but it may cause depigmentation of the skin. 4-(1,1,3,3-Tetramethylbutyl)-phenol is used as a food additive (EAFUS: Everything Added to Food in the United States).
