2-METHYLUNDECANE - Introduction
2-methylindecane (2-methylindecane) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C12H26.
Nature:
2-methylindecane is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a special odor. It has low solubility and is relatively stable at room temperature. It has a density of 0.75 g/mL, a melting point of about -29 ° C. And a boiling point of about 205 ° C.
Use:
2-methylindecane is commonly used as a solvent, which is used in industry to dissolve and dilute some organic compounds, such as resins, coatings and glues. It is also used to prepare other compounds and has certain application value in chemical synthesis and laboratory research.
Method:
2-METHYLUNDECANE can be obtained by the reaction of undecane chloride and methyl magnesium chloride. First undecane chloride is mixed with diethyl ether and methyl magnesium chloride is slowly added at low temperature. After completion of the reaction, the resulting impurities were hydrolyzed and removed, and then purified by solvent recovery to obtain 2-methylindecane.
Safety Information:
2-methylindecane has low toxicity, but contact with skin and eyes should be avoided. Wear protective gloves and goggles during operation, and keep good ventilation. If inhaled or eaten accidentally, seek medical attention immediately.
