Benzylamine

Benzylamine, also known as benzylamine α- Aminotoluene, horseradish alkaloids. Colorless liquid. Produce smoke in the air. Boiling point 185 ℃, 90 ℃ (1600Pa), relative density 0.9813, refractive index 1.5401, UV λ Max255, 262, 270nm. Miscible with water, ethanol, and ether, soluble in acetone and benzene. At 25 ℃, K=2.4 × 10-5, showing alkaline reaction. Absorbable CO2, Chemicalbook reacts with halogenated hydrocarbons to form N-substituted benzylamines, reacts with acyl chlorides, anhydrides or esters to form N-benzylamides, and reacts with aldehydes and ketones to form N-benzylimines. Preparation method: It can be obtained by the reaction of benzyl chloride with ammonia, or by the reduction of benzonitrile, or by the reduction and amination of benzaldehyde with NH3 and H2/Ni. Usage: Used for organic synthesis, qualitative testing of metal organic compounds, determination of platinum, vanadium, and tungstate salts, and as a precipitant for thorium, cerium, lanthanum, zirconium, etc.
