BENZOIC ANHYDRIDE 98% For Synthesis - 100 gm

Description

Benzoic anhydride by Research Lab Fine Chem Industries is a high grade reagent. Also known as Benzoyl anhydride, this compound is an acid anhydride of benzoic acid. This reagent is available as a powder which is insoluble in water. It has a melting point of 42 C and a boiling point of 360 C. While this reagent is stable under general conditions, it is incompatible with strong oxidizing agents. Benzoic anhydride can be generated by dehydrating benzoic acid. CAS No.: 93-97-0 Quantity Provided: 100 gm per bottle Molecular formula: (C6H5CO)2O Molecular weight: 226.23 Assay: minimum 95 %Benzoic anhydride has a variety of applications in chemical and biological sectors. This reagent is involved in the organic synthesis of a variety of intermediates. It is used to conveniently prepare benzoic esters, which are more stable to hydrolysis than acetic esters, and thus efficient at protecting alcohol function groups in a molecule. Benzoic anhydride also finds applications in the synthesis of some dyes and other compounds. This reagent is suitable for industrial synthesis of products and research applications.
