A laboratory route to 2- and 4-chlorotoluene proceeds from 2- and 4-toluidines (i.e. 2- and 4-aminotoluene). These compounds are diazotized followed by treatment with cuprous chloride. [1] Industrially, the diazonium method is reserved for 3-chlorotoluene. The industrial route to 2- and 4-chlorotoluene entails direct reaction of toluene with ...
o-Toluidine (ortho-toluidine) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 3 C 6 H 4 NH 2. It is the most important of the three isomeric toluidines. It is a colorless liquid although commercial samples are often yellowish. It is a precursor to the herbicides metolachlor and acetochlor. [2]
Benzyl chloride, or α-chlorotoluene, is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 Cl. This colorless liquid is a reactive organochlorine compound that is a widely used chemical building block .
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.
Some dichlorotoluenes are precursors to commercial pesticides. 2,4-Dichlorotoluene is the precursor to pyrifenox, butafenacil, and the pyrazole derivatives pyrazoxyfen and [pyrazolynate]]. The 2,6 isomer is a precursor to dichlobenil (2,6-dichlorobenzonitrile). 3,5-Dichlorotoluene is used to prepare propyzamide. [2]
Ethyltoluene describes organic compounds with the formula CH 3 C 6 H 4 CH 2 CH 3. Three isomers exist: 1,2- 1,3-, and 1,4-. All are colorless liquids, immiscible in water, with similar boiling points. They are classified are aromatic hydrocarbons. The ring bears two substituents: a methyl group and an ethyl group. [1]
Toluene may also be brominated by treating it with HBr and H 2 O 2 in the presence of light. [31] C 6 H 5 CH 3 + Br 2 → C 6 H 5 CH 2 Br + HBr. Benzoic acid and benzaldehyde are produced commercially by partial oxidation of toluene with oxygen. Typical catalysts include cobalt or manganese naphthenates. [32]
4-Chloro-o-toluidine (4-COT, 4-chloro-2-methylaniline) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 C 6 H 3 Cl(NH 2). It is a colorless solid. The compound is produced as an intermediate to the pesticide chlordimeform and a precursor to some azo dyes. Production has declined after it was shown to be highly carcinogenic.
