2-Ethyl-2-phenylbutyronitrile - Introduction
It is an organic compound whose chemical formula is C12H15N. The following is a description of the properties, uses, preparation methods and safety information of the compound:
Nature:
is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a benzene fragrance. It has a density of about 0.97g/cm3 and a boiling point of about 267 ° C. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, xylene and chloroform at room temperature.
Use:
is a very important organic synthesis intermediates. It is widely used in the fields of medicine and chemical industry. It can be used as an intermediate in the synthesis of anticancer drugs, hormone drugs and other drugs. In addition, it can also be used in the synthesis of fragrances and chemical reagents.
Method:
It can be synthesized by a variety of methods, the most commonly used of which is prepared by the reaction of benzyl monocarbonate and ethyl ethocyanite. The specific preparation method is as follows:
First, benzyl monocarbonate and ethyl acetocyanite are mixed, and acylnitrile reaction is carried out under alkaline conditions.
During the reaction, benzyl carbonate is hydrolyzed to benzyl alcohol through ester bond, and then reacts with ethyl cyanite to form ethyl carbonate.
After the reaction is completed, a higher purity product can be obtained by distillation and other methods.
Safety Information:
It has low volatility at room temperature, but may generate steam at high temperatures. It is irritating to the eyes and skin. Wear suitable safety glasses and gloves when using or making. Avoid inhaling its vapors, maintain a well-ventilated working environment, and avoid contact with strong oxidants. When stored, should be away from fire and high temperature. If inhaled, ingested or in contact with skin, seek medical attention immediately.
