Etherification ether

Etherification. Ethers of amyl alcohols have been prepared by reaction with ben2hydrol (63), activated aromatic haUdes (64), dehydration-addition reactions (65), addition to olefins (66—71), alkoxylation with olefin oxides (72,73) and displacement reactions involving thek alkah metal salts (74—76). [Pg.373]

Etherification. Ethers of poly(vinyl alcohol) are easily formed. Insoluble internal ethers are formed by the elimination of water, a reaction cataly2ed by mineral acids and alkaU. [Pg.481]

Cellulosics. CeUulosic adhesives are obtained by modification of cellulose [9004-34-6] (qv) which comes from cotton linters and wood pulp. Cellulose can be nitrated to provide cellulose nitrate [9004-70-0] which is soluble in organic solvents. When cellulose nitrate is dissolved in amyl acetate [628-63-7] for example, a general purpose solvent-based adhesive which is both waterproof and flexible is formed. Cellulose esterification leads to materials such as cellulose acetate [9004-35-7], which has been used as a pressure-sensitive adhesive tape backing. Cellulose can also be ethoxylated, providing hydroxyethylceUulose which is useful as a thickening agent for poly(vinyl acetate) emulsion adhesives. Etherification leads to materials such as methylceUulose [9004-67-5] which are soluble in water and can be modified with glyceral [56-81-5] to produce adhesives used as wallpaper paste (see Cellulose esters Cellulose ethers). [Pg.234]

Isomerization. Isomerization is a catalytic process which converts normal paraffins to isoparaffins. The feed is usually light virgin naphtha and the catalyst platinum on an alumina or zeoflte base. Octanes may be increased by over 30 numbers when normal pentane and normal hexane are isomerized. Another beneficial reaction that occurs is that any benzene in the feed is converted to cyclohexane. Although isomerization produces high quahty blendstocks, it is also used to produce feeds for alkylation and etherification processes. Normal butane, which is generally in excess in the refinery slate because of RVP concerns, can be isomerized and then converted to alkylate or to methyl tert-huty ether (MTBE) with a small increase in octane and a large decrease in RVP. [Pg.185]

Substitution Reactions on Side Chains. Because the benzyl carbon is the most reactive site on the propanoid side chain, many substitution reactions occur at this position. Typically, substitution reactions occur by attack of a nucleophilic reagent on a benzyl carbon present in the form of a carbonium ion or a methine group in a quinonemethide stmeture. In a reversal of the ether cleavage reactions described, benzyl alcohols and ethers may be transformed to alkyl or aryl ethers by acid-catalyzed etherifications or transetherifications with alcohol or phenol. The conversion of a benzyl alcohol or ether to a sulfonic acid group is among the most important side chain modification reactions because it is essential to the solubilization of lignin in the sulfite pulping process (17). [Pg.139]

Etherification. Isopropyl alcohol can be dehydrated ia either the Hquid phase over acidic catalysts, eg, sulfuric acid, or ia the vapor phase over acidic aluminas to give diisopropyl ether (DIPE) and propylene (qv). [Pg.106]

Etherification. The reaction of alkyl haUdes with sugar polyols in the presence of aqueous alkaline reagents generally results in partial etherification. Thus, a tetraaHyl ether is formed on reaction of D-mannitol with aHyl bromide in the presence of 20% sodium hydroxide at 75°C (124). Treatment of this partial ether with metallic sodium to form an alcoholate, followed by reaction with additional aHyl bromide, leads to hexaaHyl D-mannitol (125). Complete methylation of D-mannitol occurs, however, by the action of dimethyl sulfate and sodium hydroxide (126). A mixture of tetra- and pentabutyloxymethyl ethers of D-mannitol results from the action of butyl chloromethyl ether (127). Completely substituted trimethylsilyl derivatives of polyols, distillable in vacuo, are prepared by interaction with trim ethyl chi oro s il an e in the presence of pyridine (128). Hexavinylmannitol is obtained from D-mannitol and acetylene at 25.31 MPa (250 atm) and 160°C (129). [Pg.51]

Reaction of olefin oxides (epoxides) to produce poly(oxyalkylene) ether derivatives is the etherification of polyols of greatest commercial importance. Epoxides used include ethylene oxide, propylene oxide, and epichl orohydrin. The products of oxyalkylation have the same number of hydroxyl groups per mole as the starting polyol. Examples include the poly(oxypropylene) ethers of sorbitol (130) and lactitol (131), usually formed in the presence of an alkaline catalyst such as potassium hydroxide. Reaction of epichl orohydrin and isosorbide leads to the bisglycidyl ether (132). A polysubstituted carboxyethyl ether of mannitol has been obtained by the interaction of mannitol with acrylonitrile followed by hydrolysis of the intermediate cyanoethyl ether (133). [Pg.51]

Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE). Methyl tert-hutyi ether [1634-04-4] is made by the etherification of isobutylane with methanol, and there are six commercially proven technologies available. These technologies have been developed by Arco, IFF, CDTECH, Phillips, Snamprogetti, and Hbls (hcensed jointly with UOP). The catalyst in all cases is an acidic ion-exchange resin. The United States has been showing considerable interest in this product. Western Europe has been manufacturing it since 1973 (ANIC in Italy and Huls in Germany). Production of MTBE in Western Europe exceeded 600,000 tons in 1990. [Pg.373]

Etherification. Carbohydrates are involved in ether formation, both intramoleculady and intermoleculady (1,13). The cycHc ether, 1,4-sorbitan, an 1,4-anhydroalditol, has already been mentioned. 3,6-Anhydro-a-D-galactopyranosyl units are principal monomer units of the carrageenans. Methyl, ethyl, carboxymethyl, hydroxyethyl, and hydroxypropyl ethers of cellulose (qv) are all commercial materials. The principal starch ethers are the hydroxyethyl and hydroxypropylethers (see Cellulose ethers Starch). [Pg.481]

Etherification. A mixture of ethylene chlorohydrin ia 30% aqueous NaOH may be added to phenol at 100—110°C to give 2-phenoxyethanol [122-99-6] ia 98% yield (39). A cationic starch ether is made by reaction of a chlorohydfin-quaternary ammonium compound such as... [Pg.73]

Etherification. The accessible, available hydroxyl groups on the 2, 3, and 6 positions of the anhydroglucose residue are quite reactive (40) and provide sites for much of the current modification of cotton ceUulose to impart special or value-added properties. The two most common classes into which modifications fall include etherification and esterification of the cotton ceUulose hydroxyls as weU as addition reactions with certain unsaturated compounds to produce ceUulose ethers (see Cellulose, ethers). One large class of ceUulose-reactive dyestuffs in commercial use attaches to the ceUulose through an alkaH-catalyzed etherification by nucleophilic attack of the chlorotriazine moiety of the dyestuff ... [Pg.314]

Water RepeUency. The development of water-repellent cellulose ethers has been reviewed (55) (see Waterproofing). A typical example of a commercial etherification for waterproofing cotton is with stearamidomethylpyridinium chloride ... [Pg.315]

Cross-conjugated dienones are quite inert to nucleophilic reactions at C-3, and the susceptibility of these systems to dienone-phenol rearrangement precludes the use of strong acid conditions. In spite of previous statements, A " -3-ketones do not form ketals, thioketals or enamines, and therefore no convenient protecting groups are available for this chromophore. Enol ethers are not formed by the orthoformate procedure, but preparation of A -trienol ethers from A -3-ketones has been claimed. Another route to A -trien-3-ol ethers involves conjugate addition of alcohol, enol etherification and then alcohol removal from la-alkoxy compounds. [Pg.394]

Symmetrical labile ethers such as cycloalkenyl ethers (15) or mixed acetals (16) can also be prepared from the 3-hydroxyl group by acid-catalyzed exchange etherification or by acid-catalyzed addition to cyclohexanone methyl enol ether. [Pg.402]

There are etherification processes, such as MTBE and TAME, aimed at producing ethers from C, Cg, and tertiary olefins. [Pg.322]

Both alkylate and ether have excellent properties as gasoline blending components. They have a low RVP, a high road octane, no aromatics, and virtually zero sulfur. The emphasis on alkylation and etherification will continue in both the U.S. and the rest of the world. [Pg.322]

Partial etherification of the beech wood MGX with p-carboxybenzyl bromide in aqueous alkali yielded fully water-soluble xylan ethers with DS up to 0.25 without significant depolymerization the Mw determined by sedimentation velocity was 27 000 g/mol [400,401]. By combination of endo- 6-xylanase digestion and various ID- and 2D-NMR techniques, the distribution of the substituents was suggested to be blockwise rather than uniform. The derivatives exhibited remarkable emulsifying and protein foam-stabilizing activi-... [Pg.49]

Recently, use of LiCl/DMAc and LiCl/l,3-dimethyl-2-imidazolidinone as solvent systems for acetylation of cellulose by acetic anhydride/pyridine has been compared. A DS of 1.4 was obtained the substituent distribution in the products synthesized in both solvents was found to be the same, with reactivity order Ce > C2 > C3. Therefore, the latter solvent system does not appear to be better than the much less expensive LiCl/DMAc, at least for this reaction. It appears, however, to be especially efficient for etherification reactions [178]. It is possible, however, that the effect of cellulose aggregation is more important for its reaction with the (less reactive) halides than with acid anhydrides this being the reason for the better performance of the latter solvent system in ether formation, since it is more efficient in cellulose dissolution. [Pg.130]
