Indan (stress on the final syllable: Ind a n ) is a chemical compound from the group of bicyclic aromatic hydrocarbons .

Extraction and presentation

Indan occurs widely in coal tar , primeval tar and as a structural element in indene resin . It can be produced from indene by catalytic hydrogenation over platinum catalysts using hydrogen or by reduction with metallic sodium in ethanol .

properties

Indan is a colorless liquid with an aromatic odor that boils at 178 ° C under normal pressure . The heat of vaporization is 49.2 kJ mol −1 . The solid can exist in two polymorphic crystal forms. The transition temperature from Form II to Form I is −199 ° C. Form I melts at −51 ° C. The heat of fusion is 8.6 kJ mol −1 , the heat of transformation from form II to form I is 0.8 kJ mol −1 .

The temperature dependence of the enthalpy of vaporization can be calculated according to the equation Δ V H 0 = A exp (−β T r ) (1 − T r ) βV H 0 in kJ / mol, T r = (T / T c ) reduced temperature) with A = 65.1 kJ / mol, β = 0.2866 and T c = 684.9 K in the temperature range between 302 K and 339 K.

use

Indane can be converted into indene by dehydration . Derivatives (indanes) are used in many ways as antibiotics, cardiac therapeutics, insecticides and fragrances (musk). A well-known derivative of indane is ninhydrin .
