Diisopropylbenzenes

In organic chemistry, the diisopropylbenzenes constitute a group of aromatic hydrocarbons, whose chemical structure consists of a benzene ring (C6H6) with two isopropyl groups (−CH(CH3)2) as substituents. Through their different arrangement, they form three structural isomers with the molecular formula C12H18.
