2-Isobutylquinoline(CAS: 93-19-6)

2-Isobutylquinoline (CAS: 93-19-6) is a crystalline compound with a molecular weight of approximately 164.22 g/mol. It has a solubility of about 1.5 g/L in water and is slightly soluble in organic solvents. It is moderately reactive, particularly in the presence of strong acids and bases. It also shows some volatility at room temperature.

2-Isobutylquinoline (CAS: 93-19-6) is typically synthesized through the alkylation of quinoline with isobutyl chloride in the presence of a catalytic amount of a strong base like sodium hydride. The reaction is highly selective and yields up to 95% of the desired product.

2-Isobutylquinoline (CAS: 93-19-6) is used in the pharmaceutical industry for the synthesis of certain drugs, in the polymer industry for the production of modified polymers, and in the semiconductor industry for the manufacturing of organic semiconductors and sensors.

When handling 2-Isobutylquinoline (CAS: 93-19-6), proper personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves, goggles, and a lab coat should be worn. The compound should be stored in a cool, dry place away from sources of ignition. In case of a spill, the area should be ventilated, and the spill should be cleaned up using appropriate absorbent materials. Always consult the Safety Data Sheet (SDS) for detailed handling instructions.
