4-(1-Adamantyl)toluene - Introduction

Adamantyltoluene is an organic compound that contains adamantyl and tolyl groups in its chemical structure.

Nature:
Adamantyltoluene is a colorless to light yellow liquid with a special smell. Its molecular formula is C14H22 and its relative molecular mass is 190.33g/mol. It has a density of 0.89 g/mL, a melting point of -85°C to -84°C, and a boiling point of 195°C to 196°C. It is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol, acetone and carbon disulfide, and insoluble in water.

Use:
Adamantyltoluene is often used as a solvent, intermediate and flame retardant. As a solvent, it can dissolve many organic substances and is often used in paints, coatings, adhesives, spices and other fields. As an intermediate, it can be used in the synthesis of other organic compounds, such as dyes and drugs. As a flame retardant, it can be used to make materials such as wire and cable, plastic and polyester fiber to improve its flame retardant properties.

Method:
Adamantyltoluene can be synthesized by a two-step reaction. First, toluene is reacted with hydrogen bromide to obtain 1-bromoadamantylbenzene. 1-bromoadamantylbenzene is then reacted with sodium sulfide to give Adamantyltoluene.

Safety Information:
Adamantyltoluene is an organic compound, and you need to pay attention to safety when using it. It is a flammable liquid that may cause combustion when exposed to an open flame or high temperature. During use, keep away from fire sources and maintain a well-ventilated environment. When in contact with the skin or eyes, should immediately rinse with water, and timely medical treatment. In the storage and handling, should follow the appropriate safety procedures.
