13651-55-3 - Introduction
2,3-Dimethylbenzyl chloride is an organic compound with the formula C9H11Cl. The following is its nature, use, preparation and safety information:
Nature:
2,3-Dimethylbenzyl chloride is a colorless liquid with a special aroma. It is mainly formed by the reaction of 2,3-dimethylbenzyl ketone and hydrogen chloride. It is readily volatile at room temperature and soluble in a variety of organic solvents.
Use:
2,3-Dimethylbenzyl chloride has a wide range of uses in the field of organic synthesis. It is often used as a protecting group in organic synthesis to protect ketone or carboxylic acid functional groups. It can also be used in the preparation of other organic compounds, such as pharmaceuticals, fragrances and dyes.
Preparation Method:
There are two main methods for the preparation of 2,3-dimethyl benzyl chloride. One is obtained by reacting 2,3-dimethylbenzyl ketone with hydrogen chloride under acidic conditions. The other is obtained by the reaction of 2,3-dimethylbenzyl alcohol and thionyl chloride.
Safety Information:
2,3-Dimethylbenzyl chloride is an organic substance, so it has certain toxicity. Wear protective gloves and goggles during use and operation to avoid direct contact with skin and eyes. At the same time, stay away from fire and high temperature to avoid accidents such as combustion and explosion. In the process of storage, it should be placed in a cool, ventilated place, and separated from other incompatible substances. In case of accidental leakage, appropriate emergency measures should be taken to deal with it, such as the use of adsorbent for adsorption. In the process of use, attention should be paid to abide by the relevant safety operation procedures.
