Secondary butanol aluminum is a major organic basic chemical raw material that has been widely used in fields such as organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, pesticides, etc. But perhaps everyone lacks a comprehensive understanding of secondary butanol aluminum. Yangzhou Zhongtianli will introduce it to everyone from the following three aspects. Let's take a look together
1、 Characteristics of aluminum sec-butanol
The chemical formula is C12H27O3Al, which appears as a colorless or light yellow viscous liquid and is slightly soluble in ethanol and ether. Secondary butanol aluminum, also known as secondary butoxy aluminum, has a density of 0.96g/cm3, a boiling point of 200-206 ℃/30mmHg, and a flash point of 27.8 ℃. It is easily soluble in ethanol, isopropanol, toluene, etc. It is flammable and hygroscopic, and decomposes into aluminum hydroxide and secondary butanol when exposed to water. Secondary butanol aluminum should not come into contact with oxidants, acidity, moisture, etc. It should be sealed and stored in a closed storage tank in a cool, dry place, and protected from direct sunlight. After opening, it must be used once and must not be exposed to the air for a long time.
2、 Preparation method of aluminum sec-butanol
Add 0.15 kilograms (excess) of 99% purity aluminum powder, 0.15 grams of anhydrous aluminum trichloride, and 1 kilogram of acetic acid sec-butyl ester solvent. Add 0.33 kilograms of sec-butyl alcohol, stir and heat to control the solution temperature at around 100 ℃, reflux, and after 2 hours, obtain a black mixture containing isobutyl alcohol aluminum. Extract and precipitate it for 15 hours. Extract a colorless transparent solution containing 30% of sec-butyl alcohol aluminum, and heat it to 110 ℃. The distillation temperature gradually increases, Until 125 ℃, cool to obtain secondary butanol aluminum.
3、 The Use of Secondary Butanol Aluminum
Used as an active catalyst and carrier, inorganic film, reducing agent for aldehydes ketones, oxidizing agent for aldehydes ketones, gelling agent for ink and paint, fabric waterproofing agent, aluminum composite lubricating grease, etc.
