| 2-Fluorotoluene Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid | | Uses | It is employed in organic synthesis. | | General Description | A colorless liquid with an aromatic odor. May sink or float on water. | | Air & Water Reactions | Highly flammable. Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | 2-Fluorotoluene is of generally low reactivity. Reacts with strong oxidizing agents and strong reducing agents. Also may be incompatible with many amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides [USCG, 1999]. | | Health Hazard | Inhalation of vapor may cause respiratory irritation. Prolonged and repeated vapor exposures may produce systemic toxic effects. | | Purification Methods | Dry o-fluorotoluene with P2O5 or CaSO4 and fractionally distil it through a silvered vacuum-jacketed glass column with 1/8th-in glass helices. A high reflux ratio is necessary because of the closeness of the boiling points of the o-, m-and p-isomers [Potter & Saylor J Am Chem Soc 37 90 1951]. [Beilstein 5 H 290, 5 III 676, 5 IV 799.] |
