Product Information
- 4-(Chloromethyl)phenyl ethyl ether
- Benzene, 1-(Chloromethyl)-4-Ethoxy-
1-(Chloromethyl)-4-ethoxybenzene is an alkylation agent that is used as a phase transfer catalyst in the conversion of toluene to ethylbenzene. The reaction can be catalyzed by sodium hydroxide, which causes the chloride ion from 1-(chloromethyl)-4-ethoxybenzene to react with sodium hydroxide and form sodium chloride (table salt). This reaction produces an ether group (-O-CH2-) on the benzene ring of 1-(chloromethyl)-4-ethoxybenzene. Elemental analysis has shown that 1-(chloromethyl)-4-ethoxybenzene has a 98% yield for the product, ethylbenzene. Spectrometry has confirmed that 1-(chloromethyl)-4-ethoxybenzene contains three carbon atoms, nine hydrogen atoms, two chlorine atoms, and one oxygen atom.
