PROCESS FOR SYNTHESIZING LOW CHLORINE BENZYLTOLUENE AND DIBENZYLTOLUENE

摘要

Process for the synthesis of oligomers of benzyltoluene in which the condensation of benzyl chloride with toluene is carried out in the presence of ferric chloride and then a treatment with, in particular, sodium methoxide is carried out to eliminate the chlorinated organic products. The oligomers obtained, essentially benzyltoluene and dibenzyltoluene, are suitable as a dielectric fluid.
