Diethylene dimethyl

CH3.O-CH2.CH2-O.CH2-CHj-O.CH3. Dimethyl ether of diethylene glycol. A colour-less liquid b.p. 160 C. Typical ether, useful as a high-temperature solvent. 

Dimethyl and diethyl carbonates ate shipped in nonretumable 208-L (55-gal) polyethylene dmms with carbon steel overpack or high density polethylene dmms. For bulk shipments, insulated stainless steel tank containers and tmcks provide secure protection. Diethylene glycol bis(aHyl) carbonate is shipped in dmms as above. 

Unlike chloroformates, diethyl and dimethyl carbonates are only mildly irritating to the eyes, skin, and mucous membranes. Diethylene glycol bis(aHyl carbonate) may be irritating to the skin, but it is not classified as a toxic substance however, it is extremely irritating to the eyes. 

A solution of cholest-4-en-3-one (139), 1 g, in diethylene glycol dimethyl ether (20 ml) is treated for 1 hr with a large excess of diborane at room temperature under nitrogen and then left for a further 40 min. Acetic anhydride (10 ml) is added and the solution refluxed for 1 hr. The mixture is concentrated to a small volume, diluted with water and extracted with ether. The extracts are washed with 10% sodium hydroxide solution, then with water and dried over sodium sulfate. Removal of the solvent leaves a brown oil (1.06 g) which is purified by chromatography on alumina (activity I). Hexane elutes the title compound (141), 0.68 g mp 76-77°. Successive crystallization from acetone-methanol yields material mp 78-79°, [a]p 66°. 

Ethynylation of 3j -hydroxy-16a-methyl-5a-androstan-17-one in a mixture of diethylene glycol dimethyl ether and diethylene glycol monoethyl ether in the presence of potassium hydroxide produces two isomeric 17-ethynyl derivatives. This result is not unexpected since molecular models suggest that the steric influence of the 13/ -methyl group is nearly offset by the 16a-methyl group. The presence of a 16a-acetoxy group in the estrone series also leads to the formation of epimeric 17-ethynyl compounds (61) and (62) on reaction with acetylenedimagnesium bromide.

A mixture of 8.5 g (0.03 mol) of 6-chloro-4-amino-benzene-1,3-disuifonamide, 4.0 g (0.033 mol) of 2,5-endomethylene-A -tetrahydrobenzaldehyde and 25 cc of diethylene-glycol-dimethyl ether was heated for 2 hours at 100°C. During this time the major portion of the initialiy undissolved crystals went into solution thereafter, the reaction mixture was allowed to stand for 14 hours at room temperature, during which the remaining undissolved crystals also went into solution. The reddish, clear solution thus obtained was admixed... 

A mixture consisting of 22.7 g potassium o-bromobenzoate, 16.6 g 2,6-dichloro-3-methvlani-line, 12 ml N-ethylmorpholine, 60 ml diethylene glycol dimethyl ether, and 1.0 g anhydrous cupric bromide is heated in a nitrogen atmosphere at 145 C to 155°C for 2 hours. The reaction mixture is diluted with 60 ml diethylene glycol dimethyl ether and acidified with 25 ml concentrated hydrochloric acid. The acidic mixture is diluted with 100 ml of water and the liquid phase decanted from the insoluble oil. The insoluble oil is stirred with methanol and the crystalline N-(2,6-dichloro-3-methylphenyl)anthranilic acid which separates is collected and washed with methanol. The product, after recrystallization from acetone-water mixture melts at 248 C to 250°C. 

Ketene di(2-melhoxyethyl) acetal has been obtained by the present method with the use of diethylene glycol dimethyl ether as solvent.3 Other methods for the preparation of ketene acetals include the dehydrohalogenation of a halo acetal with potassium t-butoxide 4 and the reaction of an a-bromo orthoester with metallic sodium.5...

Due to the differences in the values relative to any one system, conclusions cannot easily be drawn from the activation parameters listed in Table 3. However, an analysis of the results relative to 1,2-ethanediol, 2,2-dimethyl-l,3-propanediol, 1,5-pentanediol, 1,10-decanediol and diethylene glycol shows that a slight difference can be observed between aromatic and aliphatic acids the activations enthalpies and entropies are in the ranges 70, 100 kJ mol"1 and -SO, -130 J K"1 mol-1 for aromatic acids, and in the ranges 50, 70 kJ mol"1 and -200, -100 J K"1 mol-1 for the aliphatic acids. 

The principal solvolysis reactions for PET are methanolysis with dimethyl terephthalate and ethylene glycol as products, glycolysis with a mixture of polyols and BHET as products, and hydrolysis to form terephthalic acid and ethylene glycol. The preferred route is methanolysis because the DMT is easily purified by distillation for subsequent repolymerization. However, because PET bottles are copolyesters, the products of the methanolysis of postconsumer PET are often a mixture of glycols, alcohols, and phthalate derivatives. The separation and purification of the various products make methanolysis a cosdy process. In addition to the major product DMT, methanol, ethylene glycol, diethylene glycol, and 1,4-cyclohexane dimethanol have to be recovered to make the process economical.1... 

The required working time is 3 to 4 hours. All equipment is thoroughly dried prior to use and is flushed with an inert gas (argon or nitrogen). Commercial sodium hydroborate is used without purification. The dimethyl ether of diethylene glycol (diglyme) is refluxed over calcium hydride for 8 hours and subsequently distilled over lithium tetrahydroaluminate (lithium aluminum hydride). Commercial tri-n-butylamine is refluxed with acetic anhydride and distilled at atmospheric pressure. 

The UV spectra for the azide in a diethylene glycol dimethyl ether solution and for the styrene resin film with 1.0 micron thickness are shown in Figure 5. The azide has an intense absorption at around 248 nm (molar extinction coefficient at 248 nm = 3.0xl04 1/M cm). The syrene resin used as matrix polymer exhibits a significant transparency at 248 nm (70%).
