Xylenes ACS

ACS Grade Xylenes | CAS: 1330-20-7 | M.F: C6H4(CH3)2 | MW: 106.17, Buy now for reproducible and consistent results from ChemieR at Chemical World.

Xylenes ACS Grade is a clear, colorless liquid that is greasy to the touch. It is a mixture of three isomers of xylene, ortho, meta and para-xylene. Its chemical formula is C6H4(CH3)2. Xylenes are also known as Dimethylbenzenes and Xylol. Xylene is insoluble in water but miscible with many organic liquids. It is an aromatic hydrocarbon widely used as a solvent in various chemical reactions. ACS grade Xylenes can be used in various industries because it contains high purity and high quality.

ChemieR offers a comprehensive range of ACS grade and ISO 9001:2015 certified products, including high-purity solvents, inorganic reagents, acids, bases, and organic reagents. Our high-quality materials ensure your laboratory achieves precise, reproducible results every time. Rely on ChemieR for trusted, premium-grade chemicals that meet the highest industry standards.

Application :

  • Xylenes ACS is used as solvent and thinner, and as a cleaning agent.
  • It is used in the laboratory in conjunction with dry ice to act as a coolant. 
  • It is used as a solvent in the tetraphosphine/palladium-catalyzed Suzuki cross-coupling with sterically hindered aryl halides and arylboronic acids to synthesize tri-ortho-substituted biaryl adducts.
  • It is used as a solvent for the N-alkylation of amines or ammonia with alcohols to synthesize N-alkyl amines.
  • It is used as a solvent to synthesize aromatic polyimides by reacting unsymmetric phosphinated diamines and dianhydrides via solution polymerization.

Key features :

  • High quality and purity product which met the toughest standard of the American Chemical Society (ACS)
  • Low impurities and high stability
  • Ideal for analytical and research applications that require repeatable, consistent results.
