use | solvent for organic synthesis and nitrocellulose. The impregnating agent used for power containers is also a dye solvent for carbonless carbon paper. It can also be used as a plastic plasticizer and high-temperature heating medium |
Production method | It is obtained by the action of benzyl chloride and sodium metal. Benzyl chloride reacts with metal sodium at 160-180 ℃ for 4h to obtain benzyl. Another method is the reaction of benzyl chloride in the presence of copper, or the hydrogenation of benzoin in the presence of nickel. |
