benzylhydrazine dihydrochloride; CAS No.: 20570-96-1; benzylhydrazine dihydrochloride. PROPERTIES: Benzylhydrazine dihydrochloride is a crystalline solid with molecular formula C8H12N2 {2HCl. It has a melting point of approximately 220 C and is highly soluble in water. This compound is hygroscopic and should be stored in a tightly sealed container at room temperature (15-30 C) in a dry environment. For extended storage, it is recommended to keep it under inert atmosphere such as nitrogen. From a safety perspective, benzylhydrazine dihydrochloride is a skin and eye irritant. Proper protective equipment including gloves, eye protection, and lab coat should be used during handling. In case of inhalation, move to fresh air and seek medical attention if respiratory discomfort occurs. APPLICATIONS: Benzylhydrazine dihydrochloride serves as a versatile intermediate in pharmaceutical synthesis. It is particularly valuable in the preparation of antineoplastic agents where its hydrazine functionality undergoes selective chemical modification (pharmaceutical industry). Additionally, this compound functions as a building block for heterocyclic compounds through condensation reactions with carbonyl-containing reagents (organic chemistry research). Its applications extend to the development of new dyes and pigments where its benzyl group contributes to color stabilization (pigment manufacturing sector).
