Usage

General Description

(1-Ethylbutyl)benzene is a chemical compound with the formula C12H18. It is a colorless liquid that is used as a solvent and in the production of other chemicals. (1-Ethylbutyl)benzene is a member of the alkylbenzene group, which are chemicals that are widely used in industrial processes and consumer products. It is classified as a hazardous substance, and exposure to high levels can cause irritation to the skin and eyes, as well as respiratory and central nervous system effects. The compound is primarily used as an intermediate in the production of other chemicals, and is not commonly found in consumer products.

A New Preparation Method for the Alkylation Catalysts of Aromatic Compounds Based on Immobilized AlCl3

Abstract: A new method for the preparation of active catalysts for the alkylation and transalkylation of aromatic compounds (benzene and toluene) based on aluminum chloride immobilized on the surface of silica gel was developed. The alkylation occurred wi

Use of Trifluoromethyl Groups for Catalytic Benzylation and Alkylation with Subsequent Hydrodefluorination

The electrophilic organofluorophosphonium catalyst [(C6F5)3PF][B(C6F5)4] is shown to effect benzylation or alkylation by aryl and alkyl CF3 groups with subsequent hydrodefluorination, thus resulting in a net transformation of CF3 into CH2-aryl fragments. In the case of alkyl CF3 groups, Friedel-Crafts alkylation by the difluorocarbocation proceeded without cation rearrangement, in contrast to the corresponding reactions of alkyl monofluorides.

N-Hexane activation over zeolites: Aromatic alkylation to 1-phenylhexane

Terminal 1-phenylhexane was observed during alkylation of benzene with n-hexane over 10-membered ring zeolites at moderate temperature, whereas it was not observed when 1-hexene was the reactant. The Royal Society of Chemistry 2010.
