CAS 22201-45-2

4-tert-Butylbenzoic anhydride

Description:

4-tert-Butylbenzoic anhydride, with the CAS number 22201-45-2, is an organic compound characterized by its anhydride functional group derived from 4-tert-butylbenzoic acid. This compound typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid or solid, depending on temperature and purity. It is known for its relatively high stability under normal conditions, but it can react with water to form the corresponding acid. The presence of the tert-butyl group enhances its steric hindrance, which can influence its reactivity and solubility in various solvents. 4-tert-Butylbenzoic anhydride is often utilized in organic synthesis, particularly in the preparation of esters and other derivatives, due to its ability to acylate nucleophiles. It is important to handle this compound with care, as it may cause irritation upon contact with skin or eyes and should be used in a well-ventilated area with appropriate personal protective equipment. Overall, its unique structural features make it a valuable reagent in chemical research and industrial applications.
