Application ,
Methylcyclohexane may be used as a solvent for the synthesis of unsolvated n-
butylmagnesium chloride by the reaction of 1-chlorobutane with magnesium
powder. It may also be used as the starting material to synthesize 1-
methylcyclohexanecarboxylic acid.
Pharmaceutical intermediates. Methylcyclohexane is an important organic solvent
and extractant, which can be used as a solvent for rubber, paint, varnish (some
paint solvents also use methylcyclohexane), and can be used as oil extractant.
Methylcyclohexane can be used in organic synthesis as solvent and analytical
reagent. In addition, methylcyclohexane can also be used as a standard for
thermometer calibration. The correction solution is usually made of
methylcyclohexane as the main component.
