In appearance, it is a colorless to light yellow transparent liquid at room temperature and pressure, with clear quality and a special aromatic odor. Looking at it, it is similar to ordinary colorless and transparent liquids, but with a fine smell, the aromatic gas is different from others.
In terms of boiling point, it is about 160-170 ° C. During the heating process, when the temperature rises to this range, the compound gradually changes from liquid state to gaseous state, just like the boiling of water into water vapor.
The melting point is about -60 ° C. When the ambient temperature drops below this point, the originally flowing liquid will solidify into a solid state, like water cooling and freezing.
The relative density is nearly 0.86 - 0.87g/cm ³, which means that compared with the same body of stagnant water, its mass is about 0.86 - 0.87 times that of water. If it is placed in the same container as water, its density is less than that of water, it will float on the water surface.
In terms of solubility, it is difficult to dissolve in water, but it is easily soluble in most organic solvents, such as ethanol, ether, acetone, etc. This property is similar to that of oil and water, but it can be miscible with organic solvents such as gasoline.
Volatile, with a certain degree of volatility, in an open environment, it will slowly evaporate into the air, and its volatilization rate is slightly faster than that of water. The refractive index of
is about 1.495 to 1.505. When light passes through the material, its refraction degree is within this range, causing a specific change in the direction of light propagation.
Is the chemical properties of 1,4-dimethyl-2-fluorobenzene stable?
The chemical properties of 1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene are still stable. In this compound, the structure of the benzene ring endows it with certain stability. The benzene ring is a conjugated system, and the electron cloud distribution is relatively uniform, which makes the molecule have a certain stability basis.
1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene methyl, as the power supply radical, can affect the electron cloud density of the benzene ring through induction effect and superconjugation effect. Due to its power supply characteristics, the electron cloud density of the benzene ring will increase in the o and para-position, and to a certain extent, the electron cloud density of the benzene ring will increase, but the overall stability will not be severely affected.
Although bromine atoms have electron-absorbing induction effects, which can reduce the electron cloud density of the benzene ring, they also have lone pairs of electrons, which can be p-π conjugated with the benzene ring. This conjugation effect can compensate for the decrease in electron cloud density caused by the induction effect to a certain extent, and this comprehensive effect makes the molecular structure remain relatively stable throughout the molecular structure.
In addition, from the perspective of spatial structure, the distribution of substituents of 1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene is relatively reasonable, and there is no excessive steric hindrance. The interaction forces between the atoms in the molecule are relatively balanced, which further maintains the stability of the compound. Therefore, in general, the chemical properties of 1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene are relatively stable.
What are the production methods of 1,4-dimethyl-2-fluorobenzene?
The preparation method of 1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene generally has the following numbers.
First, start with benzene, and make benzene and bromine substitution reaction under the action of suitable catalyst, such as iron tribromide, to obtain bromobenzene. Then, bromobenzene reacts with methylating reagents, such as iodomethane, in the presence of strong bases, such as potassium tert-butyl alcohol. This step can introduce methyl, and after fine regulation of the reaction conditions, 1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene can be obtained. In this process, the amount of catalyst, reaction temperature and time need to be carefully controlled to increase the yield of the target product.
Second, it can also be used as a raw material for p-xylene. Free radical substitution reaction can occur between p-xylene and bromine under the action of light or initiator. Light makes bromine molecules split into bromine free radicals, which attack the ortho-position of p-xylene methyl to obtain 1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene. This path requires attention to the light intensity, the amount of initiator and the purity of the reaction system to avoid side reactions and reduce the yield.
Third, it can also be prepared by methylation reaction starting from m-bromotoluene. Under appropriate reaction conditions, such as suitable solvents, bases, and temperatures, methyl groups can be selectively introduced into specific locations to generate 1% 2C4-dimethyl-2-bromobenzene. Among them, the polarity of the solvent, the strength and type of the base have a great influence on the selectivity and rate of the reaction.
All kinds of preparation methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. In actual preparation, it is necessary to comprehensively weigh the availability of raw materials, cost, yield, and purity requirements, and make careful decisions to achieve the best effect.
