1,2,3,4-Tetramethylbenzene

1,2,3,4-Tetramethylbenzene is an aromatic hydrocarbon. 1,2,3,4-Tetramethylbenzene can serve as a molecular marker indicating the input of photosynthetic sulfur bacteria (especially green sulfur bacteria) in ancient sedimentary environments, reflecting the static marine environment of the source rock deposition. 1,2,3,4-Tetramethylbenzene can also be used as a pharmaceutical intermediate[1][2][3][4].
