What are the physical properties of M-Nitrobenzotrifluoride?
M-Nitrobenzotrifluoride is a colorless to pale yellow liquid at room temperature. Looking at it, it is clear and has a special smell.
In terms of its melting point, it is about -29 ° C. Under this low temperature, it can condense into a solid state. The boiling point is between 232 and 234 ° C. When the temperature reaches this point, it becomes gaseous and dissipates. Its density is 1.477g/cm ³, which is heavier than water. If it is mixed with water, it will sink underwater.
In terms of solubility, it is extremely insoluble in water. Due to the characteristics of its molecular structure, the polarity is quite different from that of water. However, organic solvents such as ethanol, ether, acetone, etc., are mutually soluble, and are compatible with the forces between organic solvent molecules.
The vapor pressure of m-nitrotrifluorotoluene is low, and the volatility is relatively weak. Its flash point is 106 ° C. In case of open flame or hot topic, there is a risk of combustion and explosion. It needs to be carefully guarded during production, storage and transportation. And it has certain toxicity. Contact or inhalation may be harmful to human health. When operating, take proper protective measures.
What is the chemistry of M-Nitrobenzotrifluoride?
M-nitrotrifluorotoluene is also an organic compound. Its properties have a number of characteristics.
First of all, its physical rationality. At room temperature, it is mostly colorless to light yellow liquid with a special odor. Its boiling point is quite different, about 200 degrees. This characteristic can be used for reference when separating and purifying. The melting point is relatively low, which is conducive to operation under specific conditions. The density is higher than that of water, and it sinks in water.
Describe its chemical properties. Due to the presence of nitro and trifluoromethyl groups, its chemical activity is unique. Nitro has strong electron absorption, which reduces the density of electron clouds in benzene rings, so electrophilic substitution reactions are difficult to occur, which is different from common benzene derivatives. Such as halogenation reaction, nitrification reaction, etc., the conditions are harsh, and strong reagents and specific environments are required. However, in the nucleophilic substitution reaction, it has a different performance. The presence of nitro groups makes the specific position on the benzene ring more active to the nucleophilic test agent. Trifluoromethyl also has a strong electron-absorbing effect, which not only affects the reactivity of the benzene ring, but also changes the polarity of the molecule, which is significant in solubility and so on. It can participate in a variety of organic synthesis reactions and is an important raw material for the construction of complex organic structures. When interacting with bases, depending on the reaction conditions, specific products may be formed, all of which are due to the interaction of functional groups in the molecule.
Furthermore, the stability of this compound is acceptable, but under extreme conditions such as high temperature and open flame, there may be a risk of decomposition, and the decomposition products may be toxic and dangerous. Therefore, when storing and using, strict procedures should be followed to prevent accidents. Its chemical properties are important in the field of organic synthesis, and many compounds with special functions can be prepared through various reaction paths, which are important in the fields of materials science, pharmaceutical chemistry, etc.
What is the preparation method of M-Nitrobenzotrifluoride?
The method of preparing m-nitrotoluene is often obtained by nitrification with trifluorotoluene as the starting material.
Prepare trifluorotoluene first and place it in an appropriate reactor. The device needs to be corrosion-resistant and temperature-controlled and stirred. Then add a mixed acid, which is composed of sulfuric acid and nitric acid. Sulfuric acid is used as a catalyst in the middle to promote nitroyl cation (NO ²) of nitric acid, which is the key active species for nitrification.
Slowly drop the mixed acid into the reactor containing trifluorotoluene, while strictly controlling the temperature. Because the nitrification reaction is exothermic, the temperature is too high, or side reactions are caused, such as polynitrogenation products, the purity and yield of the target product are reduced. Usually the temperature is controlled in a suitable range, such as 0-10 ° C, fine-tuned according to specific circumstances.
The process of dropwise addition, continue to stir, so that the reactants are mixed evenly, so that the reaction is sufficient. When the reaction stage is completed, keep the reaction complete.
When the reaction is completed, the product treatment is also heavy. The reaction solution is often poured into ice water to reduce the temperature of the system and stratify the product with mixed acids. Because m-nitrotrifluorotoluene is insoluble in water, it can be separated into liquids to obtain an organic layer. After the organic layer was washed with sodium bicarbonate solution, the residual acid was removed, and then washed with water until neutral.
After drying and removing water, the product was separated and purified by distillation or reduced pressure distillation. Using the difference between the boiling points of m-nitrotrifluorotoluene and impurities, pure m-nitrotrifluorotoluene was obtained.
This is a common method for preparing m-nitrotrifluorotoluene. In practice, the conditions and steps were optimized and adjusted according to specific conditions and requirements.
What are the precautions in storage and transportation of M-Nitrobenzotrifluoride?
M - Nitrobenzotrifluoride is an organic compound, which needs to pay attention to many matters in storage and transportation, as detailed below:
Storage
1. ** Dry and cool environment **: This substance should be stored in a dry and cool place, away from heat sources and open flames. Because of its heat, it is easy to cause chemical reactions, and even cause dangers, such as high temperature or open fire, or can lead to combustion, explosion and other disasters. Therefore, the warehouse should be well ventilated to facilitate heat dissipation and reduce danger.
2. ** Container tightly sealed **: Store in a well-sealed container to prevent volatilization and leakage. M - Nitrobenzotrifluoride is volatile. If the seal is not good, the volatile gas will pollute the environment and cause poisoning. At the same time, leakage may also cause corrosion of surrounding items, posing a safety hazard.
3. ** Classified and stored in an orderly manner **: Do not mix with oxidants, reducing agents, acids, alkalis and other substances. Due to its active chemical properties, contact with the above substances may cause severe chemical reactions. If mixed with oxidants, it may cause combustion and explosion; contact with acids and alkalis may lead to adverse consequences such as decomposition.
Transportation Regulations
1. ** Packaging Solid compliance **: When transporting, the packaging must be solid and meet relevant standards. Packaging materials need to be able to withstand certain external impact and vibration to prevent damage due to bumps and collisions during transportation and cause material leakage. Common packaging such as steel drums, plastic drums, etc., must be strictly inspected to ensure that there is no damage and no leakage before use.
2. ** Clear and eye-catching logo **: Clear and eye-catching labels for hazardous chemicals should be posted on the outside of the package, such as flammable labels, toxic labels, etc., so that transporters and related personnel can identify and prevent. This logo can remind staff to take corresponding protective measures during handling, loading and unloading to avoid accidents caused by ignorance.
3. ** Professional caution of personnel **: Transportation personnel must be professionally trained and familiar with the dangerous characteristics and emergency treatment methods of M-Nitrobenzotrifluoride. During transportation, be cautious and strictly abide by traffic rules and transportation operating procedures. Avoid sudden braking and sharp turns when driving to prevent goods from colliding and dumping; handle with care when loading and unloading to prevent brutal operation.
