The hydrolysis of ethyl vinyl ether. Part I. Reaction mechanism

The kinetics of the acid-catalysed hydrolysis of ethyl vinyl ether in aqueous solution have been measured by following the disappearance of the ether and by following the appearance of acetaldehyde; the two methods give identical rate constants. The reaction is first-order in ethyl vinyl ether and first-order in hydronium ion; in formic acid and acetic acid buffer solutions, it shows general acid catalysis. Proton magnetic resonance analysis of the reaction products shows that only one deuterium atom is incorporated in the methyl group of the acetaldehyde which is formed when the reaction is conducted in deuterium oxide solution. This evidence establishes the reaction as a rate-determining proton transfer from catalysing acid to substrate.

What is Oleamide?

CAS №301–02–0  EC No 206–103–9  Synonyms  9-Octadecenoic amide; Oleic acid amide; Oleyl amide; Oleylamide; SLEEPAMIDE; ODA; OLEYRAMIDE; OLEYLAMIDE; OLEAMIDE; (9Z)-9-Octadecenamide; (Z)-9-Octadecenamide; 9-Octadecenamide,(Z)-; (9Z)-octadec-9-enamide    Definition

Oleamide is a fatty acid primary amide derived from oleic acid. It is a colorless waxy solid which is suggested as a slip additive in polyolefin applications. It often forms a thin lubricating layer to reduce the coefficient of friction, preventing any unwanted adhesion. It provides high slip, mold & torque release and shows composite lubrication, scuff- and scratch resistance.

Properties

· Oleamide is a non-ionic surfactant and is white powder-like or flake-like at room temperature. It is nontoxic, insoluble in water and soluble in hot ethanol, ether other organic solvents.

· Oleamide has special internal and external lubrication effect and is relative stable to heat, oxygen, and ultraviolet.

· It has various kinds of properties including anti-adhesive, waterproof, slipping, leveling, moisture-proof, anti-static electricity, anti-settling, anti-fouling, and dispersion.

· Its effects of anti-sticking, anti-static and dispersion are very strong with no hydroscopic property.

Main Applications

· Oleamide have long been the best-known standard lubricants in polymer processing and are well accepted as slip and antiblock additives over the service life of plastics.

· Synthetic oleamide has a variety of industrial uses including as a slip agent, a lubricant, and a corrosion inhibitor. The slip and antiblock effects of Oleamide are confined to finished plastic parts, often from the range of polyolefins. Slip properties enable two surfaces to slide more smoothly over each other, e.g. for easier opening of screw tops. In contrast, antiblock properties reduce the adhesion of two surfaces. This provides for easier handling, as is often desired when we try to open plastic film packaging.

· It is an Anti-scratch Agent.

Other Applications

Phenoxyethanol, when administered in the feed to mice, was a reproductive toxicant to F, mice. In addition, there was a dose-dependent decrease in live pup weight. Continuous exposure of the F, mice to Phenoxyethanol resulted in reduced body weights and in mortality in the mid-and high-dose groups. Phenoxyethanol in the diet was toxic to newborn and young mice. Seminal vesicle weights were reduced in the males of the mid-and high-dose groups. Bodyweight gain and reproductivity/fertility were not adversely affected by Phenoxyethanol at low- and mid-dose dietary concentrations. Dermal treatment of pregnant New Zealand White rabbits with Phenoxyethanol did not result in teratogenicity, embryotoxicity, or fetotoxicity at doses up to those which were maternally toxic. No significant testicular atrophy was seen in mice after oral treatment with Phenoxyethanol.

Phenoxyethanol is an aromatic ether that is used in cosmetics as a preservative at concentrations below I % and as a fixative for perfumes. According to the classification scheme of Hodge and Sterner,‚Äú’ Phenoxyethanol is practically nontoxic when administered orally or dermally to rats. In a subchronic oral toxicity study in rats of Phenoxyethanol, signs of toxicity included reduced body weights and an impaired ability to utilize feed. Increased liver, kidney, and thyroid weights were noted at necropsy in surviving rats. Undiluted Phenoxyethanol was a strong eye irritant but was nonirritating when tested at 2.2%. Phenoxyethanol at 2.0% was a slight irritant to rabbit skin but was neither an irritant nor sensitizer to guinea pig skin. In dermal treatment studies, Phenoxyethanol was neither teratogenic, embryotoxic or fetotoxic at doses that were maternally toxic. Phenoxyethanol was nonmutagenic in the Ames test, with and without metabolic activation, and in the mouse micronucleus test. In clinical studies, Phenoxyethanol was neither a primary irritant nor a sensitizer. Phenoxyethanol was not phototoxic in clinical studies. It is concluded that Phenoxyethanol is safe as a cosmetic ingredient in the present practices of use and concentration.
