Does someone knows something about toxitivity, pureness and aggregate state of Dimethylbenzene [CAS number 3-235-235 (: :)] ?

Are you sure that's the CAS number? Ortho, meta, or para, xylenes have a tendency to racimise (not the right word but close) when they are pure and go to a mixture again. What do you mean by pureness, are you talking OTC solvent xylene? Toxicity is nothing special, just a regular organic solvent so brain damage and lung damage on long exposure. BTW, it's a liquid.
