What is Friedel-Crafts Alkylation of p-Xylene about?
This document describes a Friedel-Crafts alkylation reaction of p-xylene using 1-bromopropane and aluminum chloride catalyst. It may produce two monoalkylation products - n-propyl and isopropyl substituted p-xylene. The ratio of these products for p-xylene alkylation will be determined and compared to the reported 1:2 ratio for benzene alkylation. Experimental techniques discussed include handling the reactive aluminum chloride catalyst, trapping gaseous byproducts, and purifying the products using reduced
