1,3-Dimethoxybenzene(CAS#151-10-0)

Introduction

1,3-Dimethoxybenzene. The following is an introduction to the properties, uses, preparation, and safety information of 1,3-dimethoxybenzene:Properties:- Appearance: Colorless liquid- Solubility: Soluble in organic solvents, insoluble in water- Stability: Stable, but sensitive to heat and lightUses:- 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene is widely used in the chemical field and is an important initiator for synthesizing polymers and resins with specific properties.- It is also used as a solvent and extracting agent and can be applied in some organic syntheses and chromatographic analyses.Preparation:- 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene can be prepared by the reaction of phenol with methanol. Phenol reacts with methanol under acidic conditions or in the presence of an acidic catalyst to form para-cresol, which is then methylated to obtain 1,3-dimethoxybenzene.Safety Information:- 1,3-Dimethoxybenzene is a flammable liquid and should be kept away from fire sources, stored in a cool, well-ventilated place.- When handling, wear appropriate protective gloves and goggles to avoid contact with skin and eyes.- In case of inhalation or skin contact, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice.- Waste disposal should follow local environmental regulations.
