Why does methylbenzene have higder boiling point than benzene?

It is a bigger molecule and so the van der Waals dispersion forces will be bigger. Methylbenzene also has a small permanent dipole, so there will be dipole-dipole attractions as well as dispersion forces. The dipole is due to the CH3 group's tendency to "push" electrons away from itself. This also affects the reactivity of methylbenzene Chemguide
