use | used in the synthesis of resins, fragrances and dyes. Gas chromatography contrast samples. It is used as a comonomer of polyethylene, as well as a raw material for the manufacture of dyes, detergents, pharmaceuticals and pesticides, and as an oil additive and high-octane fuel It is used to make fragrances, dyes and synthetic resins |
production method | 1mol of hexamine is suspended in 9mol of 25% sodium hydroxide aqueous solution, 4mol of dimethyl sulfate is added in multiple batches, shaken under cooling, quaternary ammonium salt is separated into viscous oil, then oily quaternary ammonium salt is dissolved in 1.5mol of 20% dilute sulfuric acid, refluxed for 2 hours, cooled, slightly excess barium hydroxide solution is added, barium sulfate precipitate is filtered out, the filtrate is compressed at 50 ℃, 4mol 50% potassium hydroxide is added for distillation, the distillate is divided into water layer, the oil layer is washed with dilute sulfuric acid to remove amine, then washed with water, dried and then distilled to obtain hexene, and the yield is 66%. |
