Apparatus for generating 1-methylcyclopropene

摘要

Disclosed is an apparatus for generating 1-methylcyclopropene including: a first vessel including a 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) precursor; a second vessel including a fluoride ion-containing compound solution that reacts with the 1-MCP precursor to produce 1-methylcyclopropene; a carrier gas that is introduced into any one of the vessels to transports the reactants and products; wherein the 1-methylcyclopropene precursor and the fluoride ion-containing compound solution are represented by formula 1 and formula 2 respectively. The apparatus may further include a third vessel including a filter for removing by-products except for 1-methylcyclopropene from the reaction product. The apparatus enables the immediate and convenient generation of 1-methylcyclopropene in a desired location.
