| | indicator | Benzophenone is widely used in the synthesis experiment as an indicator, it can be used as a indicator while handling toluene, benzene, THF, acetonitrile ect.; if there is a beautiful blue after added, it can be distillated and used, it is the best to kept in sodium, but the reason of generating blue is still a puzzle.
Here is the reason from a foreign book about reactions mechanism : a radical anion generated by the one called carbonyl radical, benzophenone acts as the indicator is that benzophenone oxygen atoms in sodium capture electrons to generate dark blue carbonyl radical; the radicals perspective on the electrical aspect is stable, mainly used to indicate 'anaerobic conditions',Widely used.
After the addition of benzophenone, more blue of the solution, indicating less oxygen in the solution, indirectly instructing the little water. However, whether the solution turns blue, is related to the added amount of benzophenone and processing solvent, THF (300ml) contains lots of water, and needs more than about 6 hours to reflux, and of course, it is related to the amount of processing solvent, the more the longer, toluene , benzene and other samples containing less aqueous need less reflux time, it is best to add the common desiccants to pretreat, such as: potassium carbonate, sodium sulfate, sodium hydroxide, etc., so that the processing time will be shortened. | | Toxicity | GRAS(FEMA)。

| | Production method | There are different methods for synthesizing benzophenone. One method involves condensing benzyl chloride and benzene, followed by oxidation with nitric acid. Another method involves condensing benzene and carbon tetrachloride, followed by hydrolysis. In laboratory production, benzophenone is typically synthesized using aluminum chloride as a catalyst, with benzene reacting with benzoyl chloride. The final method involves condensing benzene and benzoyl chloride in the presence of aluminum chloride, followed by crystallization from ethanol. | | Description | Benzophenone is a combustible, white,crystalline solid with a rose-like odor.

studies in mice and rabbits did not show any tumor excess
in the treated animals. Female Swiss mice and
New Zealand White rabbits of both sexes were treated dermally
with 0, 5, 25, or 50% of benzophenone (0.02 mL) twice
a week for 120 or 180 weeks. Weekly examination of the
rabbits did not reveal any reduction in survival or appearance
of tumors. Mice treated with benzophenone did not show any
excess in the number of tumor-bearing animals or in total
number of tumors compared to untreated control animals.
Although three skin tumors were observed in the benzophenone-
treated mice (one case of squamous cell carcinoma and
two cases of squamous cell papilloma), there were also three
tumors (one carcinoma and toe papillomas) observed in the
control animals. | | Metabolism | Benzophenone's main metabolic pathway in the rabbit is by reduction to benzhydrol, which is excreted conjugated with glucuronic acid(Williams, 1959). | | storage | Color Code—Green: General storage may be used.Store in a cool, well-ventilated area away from sources ofignition and incompatible materials. | | Shipping | UN1224 Ketones, liquid, n.o.s., Hazard Class: 3;
