1,2-Dibenzyloxyethane - Introduction
Ethyleneglycoldibenzylether is an organic compound with the chemical formula C18H22O3. The following is an introduction to its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
Ethyleneglycoldibenzylether is a colorless to light yellow liquid with low volatility. It is miscible with common organic solvents such as ethers, alcohols, ketones and organic solvents, and is insoluble in water. It has good light stability and chemical stability.
Use:
Ethyleneglycoldibenzylether are mainly used as important intermediates in organic synthesis. It is frequently used in the medical field as a solvent for organic synthesis reactions, for example as a reaction medium for esterification, acetal/ketone and cyclization reactions. In addition, it may also play a stability enhancing role in the preparation of certain surfactants and oil repellents.
Preparation Method:
Ethyleneglycoldibenzylether can be prepared by the reaction of methanol and benzyl alcohol through ethylene glycol in the presence of a catalyst. In this reaction process, methanol reacts with benzyl alcohol to form methanol anisole, and then reacts with ethylene glycol to obtain ethylene glycol dibenzyl ether.
Safety Information:
Ethyleneglycoldibenzylether has low toxicity under general conditions of use. However, it is a flammable liquid and should avoid contact with open flames, high temperatures and oxidants. During handling and storage, it is necessary to maintain a well-ventilated environment and take appropriate protective measures, such as wearing protective glasses and gloves. At the same time, skin contact and inhalation of its vapors should be avoided. In case of contact with skin, rinse immediately with soap and water. When using the Ethyleneglycoldibenzylether, please carefully read and observe the relevant safety operation guidelines and precautions.
