The main use of tert-pentyl-2-methylperoxybenzoate is as an oxidant and is commonly used in organic synthesis. It can be used to oxidize organic compounds such as alcohols, ethers and ketones to produce the corresponding carbonyl compounds. It is often used in organic synthesis to prepare compounds such as aldehydes, ketones and acids.
The preparation method of the compound is as follows:
The esterification reaction of hydrogen peroxide and benzoic acid is used. Hydrogen peroxide is added to the reaction bottle, and then benzoic acid is slowly added, and sodium bicarbonate is added as a catalyst. Next, tert-pentanol was added at room temperature and the reaction mixture was stirred. Finally, the reaction mixture is heated to reflux to give tert-pentyl-2-methylperoxybenzoate.
It should be noted that the following safety precautions should be paid attention to during the operation and use of the compound:
1. Because it is an organic peroxide and has strong oxidation, it is necessary to pay attention to safety protection and wear protective glasses and gloves during operation.
2. Avoid contact with flammable materials, away from open flame and heat source.
3. Use in a well-ventilated place to avoid inhaling its vapor or dust.
4. Store in a closed container, away from fire and high temperature environment.
5. Avoid contact with strong acid or alkali to avoid dangerous reaction.
Please handle and store the compound carefully, and strictly follow laboratory safety regulations. In case of safety problems during use, please call for help in time and take corresponding emergency measures.
