Product Details

Benzene CAS#71-43-2

Benzene is a colorless, volatile, highly flammable liquid that is used extensively in the chemical industry and received wide interest in the early days of organic chemistry.Because of its structure, benzene is a very stable organic compound. It does not readily undergo addition reactions. Addition reactions involving benzene require high temperature, pressure, and special catalysts. The most common reactions involving benzene involve substitution reactions. Numerous atoms and groups of atoms may replace a hydrogen atom or several hydrogen atoms in benzene. Th ree important types of substitution reactions involving benzene are alkylation, halogenation, and nitration. In alkylation, an alkyl group or groups substitute for hydrogen(s).

Product Application of Benzene CAS#71-43-2

Benzene occurs in coal and coal-tar distillationproducts and in petroleum products suchas gasoline. It is also found in the gases andleachates of landfills for industrial wastes,construction debris, and landscaping refuse(Oak Ridge National Laboratory 1989). Traceamounts of benzene, toluene, xylenes, andother volatile organics have been found inthe soils and groundwaters near many sanitarylandfills (U.S. EPA 1989a,b). Kramer(1989) has assessed the level of exposuresto benzene during removal, cleaning, pumping,and testing of underground gasoline storagetanks. The average human exposureswere 0.43–3.84 ppm (in 1.5–6 hours) and thehighest short-term (15–minute) exposure was9.14 ppm. Benzene also occurs in the tobaccosmoke (Hoffmann et al. 1989); thus the riskof its exposure may enhance from inhalingsuch smoke.
Benzene is used as a solvent for waxes,resins, and oils; as a paint remover; as a diluentfor lacquers; in the manufacture of dyes,pharmaceuticals, varnishes, and linoleum;and as a raw material to produce a numberof organic compounds.
