| 1,2,4,5-Tetramethylbenzene Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | white to brown semi-transparent crystals | | Physical properties | Colorless crystals or scales with a camphor-like odor | | Uses | Plasticizers; polymers; fibers; organic synthesis. | | Uses | 1,2,4,5-Tetramethylbenzene is used in method for reducing odor in room in remodeling work by removing causative substances. | | General Description | Colorless crystals with a camphor-like odor. | | Air & Water Reactions | Insoluble in water. | | Reactivity Profile | Vigorous reactions, sometimes amounting to explosions, can result from the contact between aromatic hydrocarbons, such as 1,2,4,5-Tetramethylbenzene, and strong oxidizing agents. They can react exothermically with bases and with diazo compounds. Substitution at the benzene nucleus occurs by halogenation (acid catalyst), nitration, sulfonation, and the Friedel-Crafts reaction. | | Purification Methods | Chromatograph durene on alumina, and recrystallise it from aqueous EtOH or *benzene. Zone-refining removes duroaldehydes. Dry it under vacuum. [Yamauchi et al. J Phys Chem 89 4804 1985.] It has also been sublimed in vacuo [Johnston et al. J Am Chem Soc 109 1291 1987].
