Nature:
1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene is a white crystal or powder with a special aromatic odor. It has a melting point of about 70-73 degrees Celsius and a boiling point of 309 degrees Celsius. It is soluble in alcohols and chlorinated hydrocarbons at room temperature, but insoluble in water.
Use:
1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene is an important intermediate in organic synthesis and is often used in the synthesis of other compounds. It can be used as a raw material for the synthesis of dyes, drugs and pesticides, and can also be used for the modification and functionalization of polymers.
Preparation Method:
1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene are generally prepared by reacting 1,4-dibromonaphthalene in methanol and tetrachloromethane with aluminum trichloride. First, aluminum trichloride is added to tetrachloromethane, and then 1,4-dibromonaphthalene is slowly added, the temperature is controlled at 0-5 degrees Celsius, and the reaction is carried out for 2-3 hours. After completion of the reaction, the reactants were mixed with water and neutralized to give the product, 1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene.
Safety Information:
1,4-Bis(chloromethyl)naphthalene is an organochlorine compound with certain toxicity. It has an irritating effect on the skin, eyes and respiratory system, and appropriate protective measures should be taken when in contact. During use or storage, it should be well ventilated and avoid contact with oxidants and strong alkalis. If inhaled or ingested, seek medical help immediately.
