Diphenylmethane is an organic compound with the formula (C 6 H 5) 2 CH 2 (often abbreviated CH 2 Ph 2). The compound consists of methane wherein two hydrogen atoms are replaced by two phenyl groups. It is a white solid. Diphenylmethane is a common skeleton in organic chemistry. The diphenylmethyl group is also known as benzhydryl.
MDA is also used extensively as a precursor to methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI). Here, MDA is treated with phosgene to produce MDI. MDI, in turn, is a precursor to many polyurethane foams. [6] [7] Lower quantities are used as hardeners in epoxy resins and adhesives, as well as in the production of high-performance polymers. [3]
Methylene diphenyl diisocyanate (MDI) is an aromatic diisocyanate. Three isomers are common, varying by the positions of the isocyanate groups around the rings: 2,2′-MDI, 2,4′-MDI, and 4,4′-MDI. The 4,4′ isomer is most widely used, and is also known as 4,4′-diphenylmethane diisocyanate. [3] This isomer is also known as Pure MDI.
The bisphenols (/ ˈ b ɪ s f ɪ n ɒ l /) are a group of industrial chemical compounds related to diphenylmethane; commonly used in the creation of plastics and epoxy resins. [1] [2] [3] Most are based on two hydroxyphenyl functional groups linked by a methylene bridge.
Ball-and-stick model of diphenylmethane. The benzhydryl compounds are a group of organic compounds whose parent structures include diphenylmethane (which is two benzene rings connected by a single methane), with any number of attached substituents, including bridges.
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.
Methylene (IUPAC name: Methylidene, also called carbene or methene) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CH 2 (also written [CH 2]). It is a colourless gas that fluoresces in the mid-infrared range, and only persists in dilution, or as an adduct. Methylene is the simplest carbene.
Methylene may refer to: Methylene group or methylene bridge (CH 2 < or equivalently -CH 2 -), a part of a molecule connected to the rest of the molecule by two single bonds. An older name for methylidene (=CH 2 ), a part of a molecule connected to another atom by a double bond.
