1-chlorobutane is a chemical compound from the groups of saturated, aliphatic halogenated hydrocarbons and organic chlorine compounds .

synthesis

A technical synthesis takes place through the thermal chlorination of butane over aluminum oxide at 200 ° C. This produces 2-chlorobutane to the same extent and small proportions of dichlorobutane . This synthesis is also successful photochemically at 15-20 ° C, the product distribution being similar. Another possibility is the reaction of 1-butanol with hydrogen chloride at 100 ° C.

properties

1-chlorobutane is a colorless and highly volatile liquid with a typical odor of halogenated hydrocarbons. The compound boils at 78 ° C. under normal pressure. At −123.1 ° C the substance solidifies to a colorless solid. 1-chlorobutane forms azeotropically boiling mixtures with water and alcohols . With a water content of 6.6 % by mass, an azeotrope appears at 68.1 ° C. The azeotropes for alcohols are for methanol with 28.5 mass% at 57.2 ° C, for ethanol with 21.5 mass% at 66.2 ° C and for 1-propanol with 16.0 mass% at 75.6 ° C.

Thermodynamic properties

According to Antoine, the vapor pressure function results from log 10 (P) = A− (B / (T + C)) (P in bar, T in K) with A = 3.99588, B = 1182.903 and C = −54.885 in the temperature range from 256.4 to 351.6 K.

at normal pressure boiling point

The temperature dependence of the enthalpy of vaporization can be calculated according to the simplified Watson equation Δ V H = A · (1 − T r ) nV H in kJ / mol, T r = (T / T c ) reduced temperature) with A = 41.205 kJ / mol, n = 0.336 and T c = 532.0 K in the temperature range between 184 K and 532 K.

Safety-related parameters

1-chlorobutane is considered a flammable liquid. Flammable vapor-air mixtures can form above the flash point. The compound has a flash point of −12 ° C. The explosion range is between 1.8% by volume (65 g / m 3 ) as the lower explosion limit (LEL) and 10.1% by volume (390 g / m 3 ) as the upper explosion limit (UEL). The maximum explosion pressure is 9.6 bar. The limit gap width was determined to be 1.06 mm. This results in an assignment to explosion group IIA. With a minimum ignition energy of 1.24 mJ, vapor-air mixtures are extremely ignitable. The ignition temperature is 245 ° C. The substance therefore falls into temperature class T3.

use

1-chlorobutane is used as an alkylating reagent to introduce a butyl group in organic syntheses (e.g. for ionic liquids ). Reaction with metallic lithium gives butyllithium , which is very often used for organometallic syntheses .

The compound has very good dissolving properties for fats , oils and waxes and is also used in HPLC . In veterinary medicine 1-chlorobutane is used as an agent against lower worms .
