The tetramethylbenzenes constitute a group of substances of
aromatic hydrocarbons, which structure consists of a
benzene ring with four
methyl groups (–CH
3) as a substituent. Through their different arrangement, they form three structural isomers with the molecular formula C
10H
14. They also belong to the group of
C4-benzenes. The best-known isomer is
durene.
