introduction | cyclobutyl formic acid is a colorless liquid substance that can be used in organic synthesis. |
use | for organic synthesis |
production method | put cyclobutane -1, 1-dicarboxylic acid into a distillation unit for heating, decarboxylation at about 160 ℃ to release carbon dioxide, then heat distillation, collect the 189-195 ℃ fraction as crude product, and re-distill to obtain the finished cyclobutane carboxylic acid. Yield 86%-91%. |
