4-tert-Butylphenol is a white to pale yellow crystalline solid at room temperature and is sold in solid form as flakes or briquettes. 4-tert-butylphenol is employed in coating products, polymers, adhesives, sealants and for the synthesis of other substances.
4-tert-Butylphenol is a phenol derivative. Its contact with skin may lead to leukoderma. It is widely used in the polymer industry. Reaction of 4-tert-Butylphenol with mushroom tyrosinase has been reported to afford 4-t-butyl-o-benzoquinone and kinetics of this enzymatic reaction has been investigated.
4-tert-Butylphenol may be employed as carbon and energy supplement in the culture medium of Sphingobium fuliginis strains.
4-tert-Butylphenol is suitable reagent used in kinetic study of hydroxylation of 4-tert-butylphenol by mushroom tyrosinase. It may be used in the synthesis of calixarene.
