| SEC-BUTYLBENZENE Usage And Synthesis |
Chemical Properties | CLEAR LIQUID | Uses | Solvent for coating compositions, organic syn-
thesis, plasticizer, surface-active agents.
| Definition | ChEBI: An alkylbenzene that is benzene substituted by a butan-2-yl group. | Synthesis Reference(s) | Journal of the American Chemical Society, 106, p. 158, 1984 DOI: 10.1021/ja00313a032 | Hazard | Toxic by ingestion. | Safety Profile | Moderately toxic by
ingestion. A skin and eye irritant. Flammable
liquid when exposed to heat or flame. To
fight fire, use foam, CO2, dry chemical,
water spray or mist. Incompatible with
oxidzing materials. When heated to
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and
fumes. | Environmental fate | Chemical/Physical. sec-Butylbenzene will not hydrolyze because it has no hydrolyzable
functional group (Kollig, 1995). |
