Chlorotoluene is a group of three isomeric chemical compounds. It (ortho-chlorotoluene, meta-chlorotoluene, and para-chlorotoluene) consists of a disubsituted benzene ring with one chlorine atom and one methyl group. The isomers differ in the location of the chlorine, but have the same chemical formula. All have very similar boiling points, although p-chlorotoluene has a much higher melting point due a more tightly-packed crystal structure.
