Tris(hydroxymethyl)nitromethane synthesis
- Product Name:Tris(hydroxymethyl)nitromethane
- CAS Number:126-11-4
- Molecular formula:C4H9NO5
- Molecular Weight:151.12
Yield:-
Reaction Conditions:
with triethylamine at 45 - 50; for 1 h;
Steps:
2
Conversion of nitromethane (NM) to tris(hydroxymethyl)nitromethane (TN).5 equivalents of methyl formcel are charged to the reaction flask. The reaction is catalyzed with 0.4 mole % triethylamine (TEA), which is added to the methyl formcel. NM (1.0 molar eq.) is fed into this mixture at such a rate so as to keep the temperature between 45 - 50°C. Once the NM has been added, the reaction mixture is stirred for an additional hour. During this time, no external cooling is applied and the temperature will drop slowly.
