Use | for organic synthesis. |
production method | is obtained by reacting ethyl formate with hydrazine hydrate. 85% hydrazine hydrate was carefully added to the solution of ethyl formate and 95% ethanol and stirred for 10min. When the reaction was relieved, the reaction solution was heated to reflux for 18h, and most of the water and ethanol were distilled off under reduced pressure to obtain a syrup-like crude product, which was further refined to obtain a formyl hydrazine finished product. |
