Description

Chemical properties of 4-Nitrotoluene
4-Nitrotoluene is a yellow transparent liquid. The high-purity sample appears light yellow, while the industrial product has a darker color due to impurities such as dinitrotoluene. Insoluble in water, easily soluble in ethanol, ether, and benzene. The solubility of 4-Nitrotoluene in water is extremely low, at 0.44 g/L at 25 ° C.

The molecular formula of 4-Nitrotoluene is C ₇ H ₇ NO ₂, with a molecular weight of 137.14 g/mol. The structure is composed of benzene ring, nitro group, and methyl group. At standard atmospheric pressure, its boiling point is 238.3 ° C. The density of liquid 4-Nitrotoluene at 20 ° C is 1.123 g/cm ³, and the solid density is 1.297 g/cm ³

4-Nitrotoluene has a weak bitter almond flavor, but its vapor pressure is low and the odor is not easily diffused. As a non-polar molecule, it has extremely weak hygroscopicity and does not deliquescence in humid environments.

The application of 4-Nitrotoluene

Usage 1

4-Nitrotoluene can be used to make p-toluidine and diisocyanate of toluene, as well as pesticides and dyes for pharmaceuticals and plastics.

Usage 2

It is also an important chemical material. It can be used to produce p-toluidine, p-nitrobenzoic acid, p-nitrotoluenesulfonic acid, 2-chloro-4-nitrotoluene, 2-nitro-4-methylaniline, dinitrotoluene, and is also an intermediate for pharmaceuticals and dyes.

Usage 3

4-Nitrotoluene is mainly used in the manufacture of p-toluidine, toluene diisocyanate, dimethylaniline, p-nitrobenzoic acid, p-nitrotoluene-2-sulfonic acid, 2-nitro-p-toluene, 3-chloro-4-nitrotoluene, dinitrotoluene, etc. It can also be used as a dye, pesticide, pharmaceutical, plastic, or synthetic fiber additive.

Usage 4

As an intermediate, 4-Nitrotoluene can be used to produce pesticides and dyes. It is also used in pharmaceuticals. Toluene nitrates with mixed acids and is separated to produce p-nitrotoluene.

Production of 4-Nitrotoluene

To prepare 4-Nitrotoluene, you add toluene to a nitration kettle, lower the temperature to 25 degrees, add the acid mixture, increase the temperature to 50 degrees, stir for 1-2 hour until the reaction has completed, leave it for 6 hours and then separate the nitrobenzene. Wash it in water, then wash it again with alkali. The crude nitrotoluene is composed of ortho nitrotoluene and para nitrotoluene.

Vacuum distillation is used to separate the ortho nitrotoluene from the crude nitrotoluene. The residual fraction, which contains a high amount of para-nitrotoluene in it, is then separated further by vacuum distillation. Para nitrotoluene can be obtained after cooling and crystallization. Meta nitrobenzene accumulated in mother liquor is separated from the para isomer, and then distilled into 4-Nitrotoluene.
