摘要
It was found that isopropanol as solvent was propitious to the p-xylene electrochemical oxidation, then obtained the 1,4-bis(methoxymethyl) benzene or 1-dimethoxymethyl-4-methyl benzene. When the isopropanol was added in 20 ml, the 1,4-bis(methoxymethyl) benzene or 1-dimethoxymethyl-4-methyl benzene of products was 36.09%. Compared to no isopropanol, the experimental result showed that the total yield of products above can be obviously increased. Oil the conditions of room temperature and constant current intensity, the reaction was carried out in a single-compartment cell by the use of a pair of graphite plane electrodes. The testing process was tracked by UV-vis spectrum. In succession, we adopted gas chromatography/mass spectrometry and gas oil octane number test to detect the final production. Based on the gas oil octane number test result, the production can be used as the gas oil additive.
