What is 2-Fluorotoluene?
Chemical properties
clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid
The Uses of 2-Fluorotoluene
It is employed in organic synthesis.
What are the applications of Application
2-Fluorotoluene is a useful fluorinated toluene for proteomics research
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.]
