2,3,5,6-Tetramethylbenzene-1,4-dicarbaldehyde, with the CAS number 7072-01-7, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which features a benzene ring substituted with four methyl groups and two aldehyde functional groups located at the 1 and 4 positions. This compound is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on its purity and temperature. It exhibits a strong aromatic odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether, but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic methyl groups. The presence of aldehyde groups makes it reactive, particularly in condensation reactions and with nucleophiles. Additionally, it can participate in various chemical reactions, including oxidation and polymerization. Its unique structure and reactivity make it of interest in organic synthesis and materials science. Safety precautions should be taken when handling this compound, as aldehydes can be irritants and potentially harmful.

2,3,5,6-Tetramethylterephthalaldehyde (TMT) is a β-unsaturated ketone that has anticancer activity. TMT inhibits tumor formation in animal models and pancreatic cancer cells in vitro. It is not active against other cancers such as colon or breast cancer. TMT can be polymerized to form a monomer with vinylene groups or particle with low energy. The polymerized TMT has an aromatic hydrocarbon structure with carbonyl groups and ester compounds.
