Toluene is widely used in the paint, dye, rubber, chemical, glue, printing, and pharmaceutical industries as a solvent. [38] Nail polish, paintbrush cleaners, and stain removers may contain toluene. Manufacturing of explosives (TNT) uses it as well. Toluene is also found in cigarette smoke and car exhaust.

Structures of the three isomers of tolyl group. In organic chemistry, tolyl groups are functional groups related to toluene. [1] They have the general formula CH 3 C 6 H 4 −R, the change of the relative position of the methyl and the R substituent on the aromatic ring can generate three possible structural isomers 1,2 (ortho), 1,3 (meta), and 1,4 (para).
BHT is used as a preservative ingredient in some foods. With this usage BHT maintains freshness or prevents spoilage; it may be used to decrease the rate at which the texture, color, or flavor of food changes. [25] Some food companies have voluntarily eliminated BHT from their products or have announced that they were going to phase it out. [26]
Vapor pressure at 40°C of toluene is 7880 Pa and methylcyclohexane is 10900 Pa while DBT is 0.07 Pa and perhydro-dibenzyltoluene (H18-DBT) is 0.04 Pa. [17] This substance is currently being used as a heat transfer oil, for example, under the trade name Marlotherm SH. [18] Temperatures of approx. 300°C are necessary for dehydrogenation.
4-Toluenesulfonyl chloride (p-toluenesulfonyl chloride, toluene-p-sulfonyl chloride) is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 C 6 H 4 SO 2 Cl. This white, malodorous solid is a reagent widely used in organic synthesis. [2] Abbreviated TsCl or TosCl, it is a derivative of toluene and contains a sulfonyl chloride (−SO 2 Cl) functional group.
Ethyltoluene is produced by ethylation of toluene: CH 3 C 6 H 5 + C 2 H 4 → CH 3 C 6 H 4 C 2 H 5. Over typical acid catalysts, this process gives a mixture of the 2-, 3-, and 4- isomers. Using a modified zeolite catalyst, the alkylation is shape-selective for the 4- isomer. [1] 4-Ethyltoluene is subjected dehydrogenation to give 4 ...
Triton X-100 is a commonly used detergent in laboratories. [5] Triton X-100 is widely used to lyse cells to extract protein or organelles, or to permeabilize the membranes of living cells. [6] Some applications include: Inactivation of lipid-enveloped viruses (e.g. HIV, HBV, HCV) in manufacturing of biopharmaceuticals; Industrial purpose ...
