HEXYL CHLOROFORMATE Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Clear colorless liquid

Uses

Hexyl chloroformate has been used as derivatization reagent in: determination of sarcosine and N-ethylglycine in urine and urinary sediments by solid-phase micro extraction and fast GC-MS analysis determination of benzoylecgonine in urine by GC-quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometry

Uses

Hexyl chloroformate has been used as derivatization reagent in:

• determination of sarcosine and N-ethylglycine in urine and urinary sediments by solid-phase micro extraction and fast GC-MS analysis
• determination of benzoylecgonine in urine by GC-quadrupole ion trap mass spectrometry

General Description

Hexyl chloroformate belongs to the class of chloroformates. It is widely used in the derivatization of highly hydrophilic compounds to hexyl esters, carbonates and carbamates.

Flammability and Explosibility

Non flammable
