Ethyl phenyl ether or phenetole is an organic compound that is an ether. Ethyl phenyl ether has the same properties as some other ethers, such as volatility, explosive vapors, and the ability to form peroxides. Will dissolve in many non-polar compounds e.g. ethanol or ether but not in polar substances like water.
