Technology Process of Mercury, dibutyl-

There total 21 articles about Mercury, dibutyl- which guide to synthetic route it. The literature collected by LookChem mainly comes from the sharing of users and the free literature resources found by Internet computing technology. We keep the original model of the professional version of literature to make it easier and faster for users to retrieve and use. At the same time, we analyze and calculate the most feasible synthesis route with the highest yield for your reference as below:

synthetic route:

Reference yield: 89.0%

mercury(I) chloride (104923-33-3) + n-butylzinc iodide (34219-54-0) → dibutylmercury (629-35-6)

Guidance literature:

In tetrahydrofuran; addn. of dry THF to Hg2Cl2 (4 mmol) in three-necked flask (flushed with Ar); cooling to -50°C; dropwise addn. of soln. of C4H9ZnI (10 mmol) in THF; stirring for 0.5 h at -50°C, warming to room temp.; stirring for 2 h;; addn. of aq. NH4Cl, extg. with ether (3 times); washing combined org. layers succesively with H2O and brine, drying over MgSO4; evapg. solvents; flash chromy. (hexane) of crude product; purity 95% (2% (C6H13)2Hg impurity);;
