It is produced industrially by the hydrogenation of cyclohexanone in the presence of hydrogen sulfide over a metal sulfide catalyst: C 6 H 10 O + H 2 S + H 2 → C 6 H 11 SH + H 2 O. It is also obtained by the addition of hydrogen sulfide to cyclohexene in the presence of nickel sulfide. [2]
Cyclohexane is a colourless, flammable liquid with a distinctive detergent-like odor, reminiscent of cleaning products (in which it is sometimes used). Cyclohexane is mainly used for the industrial production of adipic acid and caprolactam, which are precursors to nylon. [5] Cyclohexyl (C 6 H 11) is the alkyl substituent of cyclohexane and is ...
Cyclohexylbenzene is produced by the acid-catalyzed alkylation of benzene with cyclohexene. [1] [2] The process can proceed using benzene as the exclusive organic precursor.. Its partial hydrogenation gives cyclohexene, which alkylates the unhydrogenated benz
Cyclohexylmethanol is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 11 −CH 2 −OH. It is a cyclohexane ring functionalized with an alcohol, specifically a hydroxymethyl group. The compound is a colorless liquid, although commercial samples can appear yellow.
It has been patented for use in air fresheners. [8]U.S. Patent 4915825 describes a froth flotation process for cleaning coal where a mixture of 95% MCHM, 4% water, and 0.1% 4-methylcyclohexanemethanol monoether (such as 4-(methoxymethyl)cyclohexanemethanol) is used as a frothing agent, and finely divided coal particles adhere to air bubbles induced into the agent which rise to the surface.
It is a water white liquid at room temperature and is manufactured in relatively small quantities. It is also known as 4,4'-methylenedi(cyclohexyl isocyanate) or methylene bis(4-cyclohexylisocyanate) [2] and has the formula CH 2 [(C 6 H 10)NCO] 2.
Benzyl mercaptan can be prepared by the reaction of benzyl chloride and thiourea. The initially formed isothiouronium salt must be subjected to alkaline hydrolysis to obtain the thiol. It has been identified in boxwood (Buxus sempervirens L.) and is known to contribute to the smoky aroma of certain wines. [2] It also occurs naturally in coffee.
4,4'-Diaminodicyclohexylmethane is the name for organic compounds with the formula CH 2 (C 6 H 10 NH 2) 2. It is classified as a diamine. In the epoxy industry it is often referred to as PACM, short for para-diaminodicyclohexylmethane. It is used as a curing agent for epoxy resins [1] It finds particular use in epoxy flooring. [2]
