2-(Chloromethyl)-1,3,5-trimethylbenzene, alpha-2-Chloroisodurene - Introduction
alpha-2-Chloroisodurene is a chemical substance whose molecular formula is C10H13Cl. The following is a description of its nature, use, formulation and safety information:
Nature:
alpha-2-Chloroisodurene is a colorless liquid with a pungent odor. It is soluble in most organic solvents at room temperature, but insoluble in water.
Use:
alpha-2-Chloroisodurene have many uses in the chemical field. It can be used as a pesticide intermediate for the synthesis of certain insecticides and herbicides. In addition, it can also be used in the synthesis of drugs, fragrances and dyes.
Method:
The preparation of alpha-2-Chloroisodurene is usually accomplished by the reaction of benzyl chloride and methylation. Specific synthetic methods include reaction of benzyl bromide with trimethylamine to form N,N,N',N'-tetramethylbenzylamine, followed by reaction with chlorine to obtain alpha-2-Chloroisodurene.
Safety Information:
alpha-2-Chloroisodurene is an organic chlorine compound, so it has certain toxicity. Excessive exposure or inhalation may cause harm to human health, so appropriate precautions need to be taken during operation. It is recommended to wear protective glasses, gloves and protective clothing when using.
