Keep well closed. Protect from air and light.

Reactivity Profile

3,3'-Dihydroxybenzidine is an aminoalcohol. Amines are chemical bases. They neutralize acids to form salts plus water. These acid-base reactions are exothermic. The amount of heat that is evolved per mole of amine in a neutralization is largely independent of the strength of the amine as a base. Amines may be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen is generated by amines in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.

Health Hazard

ACUTE/CHRONIC HAZARDS: When heated to decomposition 3,3'-Dihydroxybenzidine emits toxic fumes.

Safety Profile

Suspected carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic, neoplastigenic, and tumorigenic data. Mutation data reported. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Nox

Preparation method of photosensitive functional biphenyl diamine

The invention discloses a preparation method of photosensitive functional biphenyl diamine, and the method sequentially comprises the following steps: S1, reducing dinitro into diamino through a reduction reaction by taking 3, 3 '-dihydroxy-4, 4'-dinitro biphenyl as an initial raw material to prepare a compound A; S2, in the presence of a Lewis base, carrying out nucleophilic substitution reactionon dihalogenated straight-chain alkane with halogens at two ends and a hydroxyl-containing photosensitive substance to prepare a compound B; and S3, in the presence of a Lewis base, carrying out nucleophilic substitution reaction on the compound A and the compound B to prepare the photosensitive functional biphenyl diamine. The preparation method is simple and convenient, the yield is high, the stability of intermediate products is high, and the stability of the prepared photosensitive functional biphenyl diamine is high.

Method for synthesizing benzoxazole compound by using nitration by-products of aromatic hydrocarbon and application of benzoxazole compound

The invention discloses a method for synthesizing a benzoxazole compound by using nitration by-products of aromatic hydrocarbon and application of the benzoxazole compound. The method comprises the main process: performing step-by-step crystallization on nitration products of a 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene production enterprise so as to obtain 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene, 2,6-dinitrochlorobenzene (I) anda small amount of residues, adopting the obtained 2,6-dinitrochlorobenzene (I) as the main starting material, and performing hydrolysis, selective catalytic hydrogenation reduction, cyclization, halogenation, carbon-carbon coupling and other processes so as to synthesize the benzoxazole compound, wherein the obtained compound can be used as a main raw material to synthesize a series of chemical intermediates with important application, and the chemical intermediates include o-aminophenol, 2-amino-4-nitrophenol, 2-amino-5-nitrophenol and hydrochloride of o-aminophenol, 2-amino-4-nitrophenol, 2-amino-5-nitrophenol. Through the method, the industrial by-products are converted into high value-added aromatic aminophenol products, industrial hazardous waste of the 2,4-dinitrochlorobenzene production enterprise is reduced, the scope of products of the enterprise is widened, and the economic benefits of enterprise are increased.
