2-tert-Butylbenzoic acid - Introduction
2-tert-Butylbenzoic acid is an organic compound with the chemical formula C11H14O2. The following is a description of its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
2-tert-Butylbenzoic acid is a colorless to pale yellow crystal or crystalline powder with a special aromatic odor. It is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohols, ethers and chlorinated hydrocarbons, and insoluble in water. It has a relatively stable chemical properties, but it may decompose when heated or exposed to sunlight.
Use:
2-tert-Butylbenzoic acid is commonly used as a chemical reagent, especially in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and pesticides. It can be used as an intermediate in organic synthesis for the synthesis of a variety of organic compounds, such as pharmaceuticals, dyes, fragrances and coatings.
Preparation Method:
Generally, the preparation of 2-tert-Butylbenzoic acid is obtained by reacting O-methyl benzoic acid with tert-butyl lithium. This reaction introduces a tert-butyl group into the ortho position of the Toluic acid.
Safety Information:
When handling 2-tert-Butylbenzoic acid, it is recommended to take appropriate protective measures, such as wearing gloves, protective glasses and protective clothing. It can cause irritation to the eyes, skin and respiratory system, so it is necessary to avoid inhalation, contact with skin and eyes. If inhaled or touched, immediately go to fresh air or rinse with water. In addition, it should be stored in a dry, cool, sealed container, away from fire and oxidizing agents. When using or handling this compound, the relevant safe handling and storage procedures should be carefully read and followed.
