A chemical compound which appears under the form of a combustible, colorless liquid, is slightly soluble in water, soluble in alcohol or ether, and is used in dyes and in the manufacture or organic chemicals. 4, record 1, English, - 3%2Dmethylaniline

The prefixes "ortho-", "meta-" and "para-", along with their corresponding abbreviations ("o-", "m-" and "p-"), appear in italics and are ignored in alphabetizing. According to the actual chemical nomenclature rules in organic chemistry (in 2003), the numbers designating the positions of the disubstitution groups (1,2- for "ortho-", 1,3- for "meta-" and 1,4- for "para-") are to be preferred to the symbols "o-", "m-" and "p-". Furthermore, the prefixes "ortho-", "meta-" and "para-" should not be used anymore, and their corresponding abbreviations ("o-", "m-", and "p-") will soon be judged to be avoided, if not totally condemned. 3, record 1, English, - 3%2Dmethylaniline
