production method | It is obtained by reacting N-pentanol with phosphorus triiodide. The red phosphorus was first mixed with N-pentanol, and iodine tablets were slowly added while heating to 40 °c on a water bath. After completion of the addition, the temperature was maintained until no hydrogen iodide was emitted. After refluxing on a sand bath for 7H, distillation was performed. After washing, drying and fractionation, the resulting fine product was collected at 155-157 ° C. As a finished product. |
