    Description

    General description

    Toluene, a benzene analog, is widely employed as an organic solvent. It has been reported to be a biotoxic solvent (toxic to many microorganisms at 0.1% v/v concentrations).[1] Its anaerobic biodegradation to CO2, by the denitrifying bacterium Thauera arornatica has been reported.[2] It forms syndiotactic polystyrene-toluene molecular compound. Crystal structure of this molecular compound has been investigated by X-ray diffraction studies.[3]

    Application

    Toluene may be used for decontamination of microbial cultures and lyse bacterial cells in bacterial enzyme assays.[1] It may be used as a solvent for the preparation of 4-arm polylactide-based (PLA) star oligomer.[5] It was used for the activation of glass slides, for in vitro test system for allergy diagnosis.[4]
