(dichloro)(cyclohexyl)borane - Introduction
Cyclohexyldichloroborane (cyclohexyl dichloroborane) is an Organoboron compound with the chemical formula C6H11BCl2. Its nature is as follows:
1. Appearance: colorless to light yellow liquid.
2. Solubility: Soluble in non-polar solvents, such as petroleum ether and chlorinated hydrocarbons.
3. Stability: relatively stable at room temperature, but it will decompose when exposed to water and oxygen.
4. Reactivity: Cyclohexyl dichloroborane can react with thiol, alcohol, Amine and other compounds to form the corresponding borate ester or boron amine.
Cyclohexyldichloroborane is mainly used for the synthesis of boron reducing agent and borate Ester in organic synthesis. Specific applications are as follows:
1. Boron reducing agent: cyclohexyl dichloroborane can be used as a selective reducing agent to reduce carbonyl compounds (such as ketones and aldehydes) to alcohols in organic synthesis.
2. Borate ester synthesis: Cyclohexyl dichloroborane reacts with the corresponding alcohol to synthesize borate ester compounds, which have important application value in organic synthesis.
The preparation of cyclohexyl dichloroborane can be obtained by the reaction of cyclohexyl lithium (C6H11Li) and trichloroboron (BCl3), and the reaction process needs to be carried out under anhydrous conditions.
When handling cyclohexyl dichloroborane, you need to pay attention to the following safety information:
1. Cyclohexyl dichloroborane is irritating to skin and eyes, please avoid contact with skin and eyes.
2. Use should be operated under well-ventilated conditions to avoid inhalation of odor.
3. When storing, keep cyclohexyl dichloroborane in a sealed container, away from fire and oxidant.
4. Waste disposal should be carried out in accordance with local regulations to avoid environmental pollution.
Before handling or using cyclohexyl dichloroborane, be sure to read and follow the safety data sheet and relevant safety procedures.
