tert-Butyl chloride is the organochloride with the formula (CH 3) 3 CCl. It is a colorless, flammable liquid. It is sparingly soluble in water, with a tendency to undergo hydrolysis to the corresponding tert-butyl alcohol. It is produced industrially as a precursor to other organic compounds. [1]
The by-products are dimethyl sulfide (Me 2 S), carbon monoxide (CO), carbon dioxide (CO 2) and – when triethylamine is used as base – triethylammonium chloride (C 6 H 15 NHCl). The related N-tert-Butylbenzenesulfinimidoyl chloride combines both the sulfur(IV), the base, and the activating Lewis acid in one molecule.
tert-Butyldimethylsilyl chloride is an organosilicon compound with the formula (Me 3 C)Me 2 SiCl (Me = CH 3). It is commonly abbreviated as TBSCl or TBDMSCl. It is a chlorosilane containing two methyl groups and a tert-butyl group. As such it is more bulky that trimethylsilyl chloride. It is a colorless or white solid that is soluble in many ...
tert-Butyl alcohol is used as a solvent, ethanol denaturant, paint remover ingredient, and gasoline octane booster and oxygenate.It is a chemical intermediate used to produce methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and ethyl tert-butyl ether (ETBE) by reaction with methanol and ethanol, respectively, and tert-butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) by reaction with hydrogen peroxide.
The principal example is tert-butyl hypochlorite, which is a useful chlorinating agent. [3] Most hypochlorite salts are handled as aqueous solutions. Their primary applications are as bleaching, disinfection, and water treatment agents. They are also used in chemistry for chlorination and oxidation reactions.
Bisphenol A is difunctional and used to produce epoxy resin and polycarbonate. 4-tert-Butylphenol is monofunctional and so in polymer science terms, bisphenol A is a polymer chain extender but 4-tert-butylphenol is a chain stopper or sometimes called endcapper. It is thus use to control molecular weight by limiting chain growth.
Jacobsen's catalyst is the common name for N,N'-bis(3,5-di-tert-butylsalicylidene)-1,2-cyclohexanediaminomanganese(III) chloride, a coordination compound of manganese and a salen-type ligand. It is used as an asymmetric catalyst in the Jacobsen epoxidation , which is renowned for its ability to enantioselectively transform prochiral alkenes ...
N-tert-Butylbenzenesulfinimidoyl chloride reacts with enolates, amides, and primary alkoxides by the same general mechanism. The Swern oxidation , which converts primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively, also uses a sulfur-containing compound ( DMSO ) as the oxidant and proceeds by a similar mechanism.
