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.
A laboratory route to o- and p-iodotoluene proceeds from toluene, which is treated with a mixture of iodine and nitric acid in an electrophilic aromatic substitution.The resulting mixture of o and p-iodotoluene is then separated by fractional freezing; cooling the mixture in an ice bath results in solidification of p-iodotoluene, which can then be isolated by filtration, while the o ...
The simplest member, toluene (or methylbenzene), has the hydrogen atom of the benzene ring replaced by a methyl group. The chemical formula of alkylbenzenes is C n H 2n-6. [2] Safety hazards of toluene. Oftentimes, toluene is used as an organic solvent.

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.
A bottle of rubber cement, showing a brush built into its cap and a photo about to be cemented to graph paper. Rubber cement (cow gum in British English) is an adhesive made from elastic polymers (typically latex) mixed in a solvent such as acetone, hexane, heptane or toluene to keep it fluid enough to be used.
A freshwater aquatic food web. The blue arrows show a complete food chain (algae → Daphnia → gizzard shad → largemouth bass → great blue heron). A food web is the natural interconnection of food chains and a graphical representation of what-eats-what in an ecological community.
82 crystals are grown from toluene solution they have a monoclinic symmetry. The crystal structure contains toluene molecules packed between the spheres of the fullerene. However, evaporation of the solvent from C 76 transforms it into a face-centered cubic form. [55] Both monoclinic and face-centered cubic (fcc) phases are known for better ...
