Product name:6-Methylcoumarin
CAS:92-48-8
Molecular Formula:C10H8O2
Formula Weight:160.17
Specification:25g
Description:6-methylcoumarin is a white crystalline solid. With coconut like sweet smell. Boiling point 303℃(99.66kPa), melting point 73 ~ 76℃, flash point 67.2℃. Soluble in benzene, hot ethanol and non-volatile oil, but difficult to dissolve in hot water.
6-methylcoumarin was obtained by interaction between cresol and fumarate. Preheat 72% sulfuric acid to 80℃, add the mixture of fumaric acid and para-cresol, keep it at 160-170℃ for 3-4h, cool it, pour it into crushed ice for precipitation and filtration. Filtrate was extracted with benzene, and then the obtained coarse product was vacuum distillation and obtained 6-methylcoumarin.
