  2. Benzyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzyl_alcohol

    Benzyl alcohol is a colorless liquid with a mild pleasant aromatic odor. It is useful as a solvent for its polarity, low toxicity, and low vapor pressure. Benzyl alcohol has moderate solubility in water (4 g/100 mL) and is miscible in alcohols and diethyl ether.

  3. Benzoyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoyl_group

    In organic chemistry, benzoyl (/ ˈ b ɛ n z oʊ ɪ l /, BENZ-oh-il) [1] is the functional group with the formula −COC 6 H 5 and structure −C(=O)−C 6 H 5. [2] [3] It can be viewed as benzaldehyde missing one hydrogen. The benzoyl group has a mass of 105 amu. The term "benzoyl" should not be confused with benzyl, which has the formula − ...

  4. Benzyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzyl_group

    Benzyl group and derivatives: Benzyl group, benzyl radical, benzyl amine, benzyl bromide, benzyl chloroformate, and benzyl methyl ether. R = heteroatom, alkyl, aryl, allyl etc. or other substituents. In organic chemistry, benzyl is the substituent or molecular fragment possessing the structure R−CH 2 −C 6 H 5.

  5. Dibenzyl ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dibenzyl_ether

    It is classified as an ether derived from benzyl alcohol. A colorless, nearly odorless oil, the compound's main use is as a plasticizer . It is prepared by treating benzyl chloride with base.

  6. Azeotrope tables - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azeotrope_tables

    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.

  7. Benzoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoic_acid

    Benzoic acid is cheap and readily available, so the laboratory synthesis of benzoic acid is mainly practiced for its pedagogical value. It is a common undergraduate preparation. Benzoic acid can be purified by recrystallization from water because of its high solubility in hot water and poor solubility in cold water. The avoidance of organic ...

  8. Benzaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzaldehyde

    Amygdalin 2 H 2 O HCN benzaldehyde 2 × glucose 2 × Benzaldehyde contributes to the scent of oyster mushrooms (Pleurotus ostreatus). Reactions Benzaldehyde is easily oxidized to benzoic acid in air at room temperature, causing a common impurity in laboratory samples. Since the boiling point of benzoic acid is much higher than that of benzaldehyde, it may be purified by distillation. Benzyl ...

  9. Benzyl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzyl_chloride

    In organic synthesis, benzyl chloride is used to introduce the benzyl protecting group in reaction with alcohols, yielding the corresponding benzyl ether, carboxylic acids, and benzyl ester. Benzoic acid (C 6 H 5 COOH) can be prepared by oxidation of benzyl chloride in the presence of alkaline KMnO 4: C 6 H 5 CH 2 Cl + 2 KOH + 2 [O] → C 6 H 5 ...
