Storage Condition | Sealed in dry,Room Temperature |
Physical and Chemical Properties | Chemical liquid. Boiling point 137-138 ℃. |
Use | Uses for organic synthesis, can be used to prepare phase transfer catalyst 2-fluoro-4-methylbenzyltrimethylammonium bromide. |
It is obtained from 2, 5-dimethylaniline [95-78-3] via the Siman (Schiemann) reaction. Add 400g of 40% fluoroboric acid into 50ml of water, cool, control the temperature at about 0 ℃, slowly add 72.5g,2, 5-dimethylaniline under stirring, then add sodium nitrite solution (40g of sodium nitrite dissolved in 120ml of ice water), let stand and filter. Wash with a small amount of methanol-ether (1:1) and ether once each, drain, and decompose at room temperature (not higher than 30 ℃). The decomposition products were distilled by steam to separate the oil layer, dried with anhydrous calcium chloride and fractionated, and the fraction at 145-147 ℃ was collected to obtain 59g of 2-fluoro-1, 4-xylene with a yield of 80%.
