1,3-Benzodioxole
1. Basic Information
Name: 1,3-Benzodioxole
Alias: Benzo-1,3-dioxole, 1,2-Methylenedioxybenzene
CAS No.: 274-09-9
Molecular Formula: C?H?O?
Molecular Weight: 122.12
Category: Aromatic heterocyclic flavor intermediate, pharmaceutical synthetic building block, fine chemical raw material, organic synthesis reagent
2. Physical and Chemical Properties
Physical Properties
- Appearance: Colorless transparent oily liquid
- Odor: Mild sweet herbal, root-like natural aroma
- Solubility: Miscible with ethanol, acetone, toluene, dichloromethane, vegetable oils; insoluble in water, glycerin
- Boiling Point: 172–174 °C (760 mmHg)
- Density (20 °C): 1.059–1.063 g/cm3
- Refractive Index nD20: 1.538–1.542
- Flash Point: 62 °C
- Hygroscopy: Non-hygroscopic
- Aqueous property: Neutral oxygen-containing heterocycle; stable in neutral cold water under room temperature
Chemical Properties
- Molecular structure: Benzene ring fused with five-membered methylenedioxy ring, stable cyclic acetal skeleton
- Electrophilic substitution: Methylenedioxy group is strong electron-donating group; benzene ring easily undergoes halogenation, nitration, formylation to create piperonal, helional and drug intermediates
- Acetal ring stability: Stable under neutral/weak alkaline conditions; hydrolyzes under strong acid heating to catechol and formaldehyde
- Photostability: Slightly light-sensitive; long-term UV exposure slowly yellows
- Thermal stability: Stable below 150 °C; overheating generates trace phenolic decomposition impurities
- Compatibility: Compatible with most fragrance solvents and organic synthesis solvents; incompatible with concentrated strong acid and strong oxidants under heating
3. Main Application Fields
1. Synthetic Fragrance Core Intermediate (Core Application)
Key starting material for producing piperonal, helional, safrole, isosafrole; widely used in floral, woody, herbal perfume and daily detergent flavors
2. Pharmaceutical Heterocyclic Intermediate
Skeleton precursor for anti-inflammatory, anti-depressant, anti-parasitic APIs with methylenedioxyphenyl structural fragment
3. Natural Plant Extract Reference Standard
Marker compound for qualitative analysis of camphor, nutmeg, sassafras essential oils
4. Organic Synthesis Laboratory Reagent
Model electron-rich aromatic substrate for electrophilic aromatic substitution research
