use | analytical reagent. |
production method | is produced from bromoisobutane through the following steps. Thiourea and bromoisobutane use methanol as solvent, reflux reaction for 4-5h, add lye after methanol recovery and reflux for 4h, add dilute acid to acidic, then isobutanol is steamed out until it is no longer steamed. After the water layer is separated, the oil layer is dried with anhydrous magnesium sulfate, the desiccant is separated, fractionated, and the 85-86 ℃ fraction is collected as the finished product. |
