First of all, the appearance of this compound is often light yellow to yellow liquid, with a clear texture. It can be seen that its fluidity is good, and it exists stably at room temperature and pressure. However, when exposed to air or light, it may gradually change color due to photochemical reactions, resulting in changes in appearance.
In terms of boiling point, it is about 230-232 ° C. This boiling point indicates that considerable heat is required to convert it from liquid to gas. At high temperatures, the kinetic energy of molecules increases, which is sufficient to overcome the gasification of intermolecular forces. Due to its high boiling point, it is not easy to volatilize at room temperature and is relatively stable, which is conducive to storage and transportation. However, when operating in high temperature environments, it is necessary to pay attention to its gasification risks.
The melting point is around -14 ° C. At this low temperature, the molecular movement slows down, and the interaction forces between molecules arrange in an orderly manner, and the substance solidifies from liquid to solid. The low melting point means that the compound is not easy to solidify in cold environments. Under outdoor conditions in winter in most areas, it may still be able to maintain a liquid state. In practical applications, it can reduce problems such as pipeline blockage due to low temperature solidification.
The density is about 1.63 g/cm ³, which is larger than that of water. When mixed with water, it will sink to the bottom of the water. This property is of great significance in the separation, purification and construction of related chemical reaction systems. It can be separated from low-density substances such as water by means of density difference and liquid separation.
In terms of solubility, it is slightly soluble in water. Because its molecular structure contains groups such as chlorine, nitro and trifluoromethyl, the polarity of these groups is very different from that of water molecules. According to the principle of "similar miscibility", it is difficult to form effective intermolecular forces with water, so it is difficult to dissolve in water. However, it is soluble in most organic solvents, such as dichloromethane, chloroform, toluene, etc. The interaction between organic solvent molecules and the compound molecules is suitable and miscible. This property provides convenience for its use in organic synthesis reactions. It can choose suitable organic solvents to build a homogeneous reaction system and promote the reaction.
In addition, the compound has a certain odor, but there are few relevant odor descriptions, or because of its volatility, the odor emission is not significant. However, in a closed space or high concentration environment, the odor may be more obvious, which is irritating to human senses. Pay attention to ventilation protection during operation.
First, it is often started with an appropriate starting material. If m-trifluoromethylaniline is used as the starting material, it is first reacted by diazotization. In a low temperature and acidic environment, m-trifluoromethylaniline interacts with sodium nitrite and acid to form a diazosalt. This diazosalt is active and prone to various transformations.
Then, the diazosalt reacts with the hydrochloric acid solution of cuprous chloride, which is a Sandmeier reaction. The diazoyl group is replaced by a chlorine atom, and then m-chlorotrifluoromethylbenzene is obtained.
After that, the nitration reaction of m-chlorotrifluoromethylbenzene is carried out. The mixed acid of concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated nitric acid is used as the nitrifying agent, and the nitro group is selectively introduced into the specific position of the benzene ring at a suitable temperature. After fine control of the reaction conditions, such as temperature and the proportion of reactants, the nitro group is mainly substituted in the chlorine atom and trifluoromethyl interposition in m-chlorotrifluoromethylbenzene, and finally 1-chloro-3-nitro-5- (trifluoromethyl) benzene.
There may also be other methods, such as m-trifluoromethylbenzoic acid as the starting material, first by halogenation reaction, the chlorine atom is introduced into the benz However, regardless of the method, it is necessary to carefully control the reaction conditions in order to achieve the goal of high yield and high purity.
First words storage, this material is more active, and it should be placed in a cool, dry and well-ventilated place. Cover a cool environment to reduce the risk of reaction due to excessive temperature; dry place, it can avoid the risk of moisture hydrolysis; well-ventilated place, it can avoid the accumulation of harmful gases. And it must be kept away from fires and heat sources to prevent fires. Because of its flammability and certain toxicity, a little carelessness can cause disaster. And it should be stored separately from oxidants, alkalis, etc., and must not be mixed with storage. When this compound encounters an oxidizing agent, it may cause a violent oxidation reaction; when it coexists with alkalis, a chemical reaction may also occur, causing its properties to change or dangerous products to be produced.
As for transportation, there are also many details. Appropriate transportation tools need to be selected to ensure that the container is well sealed to prevent leakage. During transportation, it is necessary to prevent exposure to the sun, rain, and high temperature. Escort personnel must be familiar with its properties and emergency treatment methods, and can respond quickly in case of emergencies. And transportation vehicles should be equipped with corresponding varieties and quantities of fire-fighting equipment and leakage emergency treatment equipment for emergencies. When loading and unloading, operators must be light and light, and it is strictly forbidden to drop and heavy pressure, so as not to damage the packaging and cause material leakage, endangering the environment and personal safety.
All of these are for the storage and transportation of 1-chloro-3-nitro-5 - (trifluoromethyl) benzene should pay attention, a little negligence, it may lead to safety accidents, must be careful.
In water bodies, it may cause water quality deterioration, and aquatic organisms bear the brunt. Fish, shellfish, etc., may be damaged due to their physiological functions, growth and reproduction are blocked, and even population numbers are sharply reduced. Cover because of its toxicity, or can interfere with the nervous, immune and reproductive systems of aquatic organisms.
In soil, its residues can accumulate, affecting the activity and structure of soil microorganisms. Soil microorganisms have a significant impact on soil fertility and material circulation. If it is disturbed, the ecological balance of the soil will be disrupted, which in turn affects the growth of plants. Plants may be stunted and yield reduced.
As for human health, if people are exposed to this substance through breathing, diet or skin, there are many hidden dangers. The respiratory system may be damaged, causing cough, asthma and other diseases, living in its environment for a long time, or causing lung diseases, such as pneumonia, emphysema, etc.
And it may be carcinogenic. Long-term exposure to it, the genes of human cells or damage mutations, and the risk of cancer increases greatly. The nervous system is also not immune, or headaches, dizziness, insomnia, etc. In severe cases, cognitive and memory functions are also affected. In the reproductive system, it may interfere with endocrine, affect the secretion of reproductive hormones, and pose a threat to fertility.
In short, 1-chloro-3-nitro-5- (trifluoromethyl) benzene has potential harm to the environment and human health, and should not be taken lightly. It should be handled with caution to prevent the spread of its harm.
