2,2-Dimethyl-2,3-dihydrobenzofuran, with the CAS number 6337-33-3, is an organic compound characterized by its unique bicyclic structure, which consists of a benzofuran core with two methyl groups attached to the carbon atom at the 2-position. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is relatively hydrophobic, indicating low solubility in water but higher solubility in organic solvents. The presence of the dihydrobenzofuran moiety contributes to its reactivity, making it a potential candidate for various chemical reactions, including electrophilic substitutions. Its molecular structure allows for potential applications in organic synthesis, particularly in the development of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, due to its structural features, it may exhibit interesting biological activities, although specific studies on its pharmacological properties may be limited. As with many organic compounds, safety precautions should be taken when handling it, as it may pose health risks if ingested or inhaled.
