PHENYLMERCURYNAPHTHENATE - Introduction
[Napthoato (1-)-O]phenylmercury is an organic mercury compound with the chemical formula C12H8HgO2. The following is a description of the properties, uses, preparation and safety information of the compound:
Nature:
[napthoato (1-)-O]phenylmercury is a white to pale yellow crystal. It is stable at room temperature, but it will gradually decompose by light and oxygen in the air. It is soluble in solvents.
Use:
[napthoato (1-)-O]phenylmercury is often used as a reactant and catalyst in chemical laboratories. It can be used for the introduction of phenyl and the preparation of organic mercury reagents in organic synthesis. In addition, it can also be used for the detection and separation of organic mercury reagents.
Preparation Method:
[napthoato (1-)-O]phenylmercury can be prepared by reacting Phenylboronic acid with iodinated (napthoato (1-)-O)mercury. The reaction is usually carried out under an inert atmosphere to prevent the interference of moisture and oxygen in the air.
Safety Information:
Like all organic mercury compounds, [napthoato (1-)-O]phenylmercury is toxic and potentially dangerous. Exposure to it may cause serious poisoning and damage to human health. Use appropriate laboratory safety measures, including wearing appropriate personal protective equipment, and ensuring that you operate in well-ventilated conditions. It should be kept away from fire sources and flammable materials and stored in a closed container to prevent exposure to the air. The handling and disposal of waste shall be in accordance with local rules and regulations. For specific safe handling and precautions, reference should be made to the relevant chemical safety data sheet (SDS).
