p-Fluorotoluene Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

clear colorless to slightly yellow liquid

General Description

A colorless liquid with an aromatic odor. May float or sink in water.

Air & Water Reactions

Highly flammable.

Reactivity Profile

p-Fluorotoluene may be incompatible with strong oxidizing and reducing agents. May be incompatible with amines, nitrides, azo/diazo compounds, alkali metals, and epoxides. Products of combustion contain toxic fluoride fumes.

Health Hazard

INHALATION: Irritation of respiratory system. EYES AND SKIN: Severe irritation. INGESTION: Severe internal damage if swallowed.

Fire Hazard

Special Hazards of Combustion Products: Toxic fumes of fluoride

Safety Profile

Moderately toxic by parenteral route. A very dangerous fire hazard when exposed to heat or flame; can react vigorously with oxibzing materials. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of F-. See also FLUORIDES.

Purification Methods

Purify it as for o-fluorotoluene. [Beilstein 5 H 290, 5 III 677, 5 IV 799.]
