Octanoyl chloride is used to produce adhesives. It is used as an acylating agent for a variety of compounds such as sugars (e.g. Sucrose, aromatic compounds (e.g. Anisole and monoglycerides.
제조 방법
Diphosgene (108.8 g) was added to a mixture of octanoic acid (144.2 g) and DMF (1.5 L) at 70 C°. The mixture was left to stand for 1 h, and then nitrogen was bubbled through it for 30 min at 100 C° to give 96.9% of octanoyl chloride (purity 99.99%). Benzoyl chloride and terephthaloyl chloride were similarly prepared.
일반 설명
Clear colorless to straw-colored liquid with a pungent odor.
공기와 물의 반응
Reacts vigorously with water to form HCl and caprylic acid. Insoluble in water.
