Methyl benzilate has the CAS registry number 76-89-1, and it is also known as alpha-hydroxy-alpha-phenyl-benzeneaceticacimethylester , ethyl a-phenylmandelate , ethyl hydroxydiphenylacetate , or Methyl benzillate .
Methyl benzilate is a kind of white crystalline powder, usually being used in organic synthesis industry.The production method follows below: Under the chemical reation of Benzaldehyde and Sodium cyanide, we could get benzoin. Then after benzoin reacts with potassium bromate, we could get bufexamac. Finally, befexamac esterify with methyl alcohol,we could get methyl benzilate.
Being a harmful chemical, methyl benzilate may cause damage to health. And it is also harmful if swallowed unintentionally. In addition, avoid contacting with skin and eyes.
