3-Chloroperoxybenzoic Acid CAS# 937-14-4

3-Chloroperoxybenzoic acid (m-CPBA) is a carboxylic acid derivative, a white powder crystal, almost insoluble in water, conveniently soluble in ethanol, ether, soluble in chloroform, dichloroethane. Steady to warm, the annual disintegration price is listed below 1% at room temperature level. Disintegration rate is accelerated in liquid state.

In a polyethylene container, include 1.5 g of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate, 36g of sodium hydroxide, 360ml of water, 90ml of 30% hydrogen peroxide, 450ml of dioxane as well as ice cubes, reduced the temperature level to 15 ° C, as well as include 52.5 g of M-chlorobenzoyl chloride, after that include ice to keep the temperature level listed below 25 ° C. After reacting for 15 mins, include 900ml of 20% chilly sulfuric acid. After standing still, the organic layer was divided, filteringed system, and the filtrate was evaporated to eliminate the solvent (high vacuum cleaner distillation) to get 51g of 3-chloroperbenzoic acid.
