|---|---|---|
In organic chemistry, xylene or xylol (IUPAC name: dimethylbenzene) are any of three organic compounds with the formula (CH3)2C6H4. They are derived from the substitution of two hydrogen atoms with methyl groups in a benzene ring; which hydrogens are substituted determines which of three structural isomers results. Colorless and transparent liquid with pungent smell. It consists of 45%~70% m-xylene, 15%~25% p-xylene and 10%~15% o-xylene. Miscible randomly with ethanol, chloroform or diethyl ether, insoluble in water. Low toxicity. It is prone to combustion and may burn or explode when encounters open flame or high temperature. It has a violent reaction with oxidant. If flow velocity is too fast, static electricity may appear. Its vapor is heavier than the air and can spread in lower position to quite far place, and catches on fire when encounters open flame. |
