Ethyl alcohol, thallium salt

Cyclohexanediol diacetate, trans- (8,9) (1759-71-3) Thallixim(I) ethoxide Ethyl alcohol, thallium (1+) salt (8) Ethanol, thallium (1 + ) salt (9) (20398-06-5)... 

Ethyl alcohol is found in alcoholic beverages and is a known teratogenic material, which is the reason doctors tell pregnant women not to drink alcohol. When a mother drinks, the unborn child drinks as well. Ethyl alcohol causes growth failure and impaired brain development. Unborn children exposed to alcohol may suffer the effects of Eetal Alcohol Syndrome when they are bom. Symptoms of Fetal Alcohol Syndrome include sleep disturbance, jitteriness, a higher incidence of impaired vision and hearing, lack of motor coordination, balance problems, abnormal thyroid function, and a decrease in immune system effectiveness. Additional teratogens include heavy metals, methyl mercury, mercury salts, lead, thallium, selenium, penicillin, tetracyclines, excess Vitamin A, and carbon dioxide. 

Thallium diethyl lactate crystallises in small plates from alcohol, which decompose suddenly without melting at 267 5° C. The salt is soluble in cold water, acetone, or alcohol, and easily soluble in boiling chloroform, toluene, or ethyl acetate. 

Thallium diethyl 2 6-dinitrophenoxide forms deep orange plates, sintering at 1S2 " C. and melting with decomposition at 190° C. The salt is completely soluble in cold alcohol, ether, or acetone, gi dng yellow solutions in pyridine, ethyl acetate, chlorofomi, or hot toluene, fairly soluble in carbon tetrachloride, and insoluble in light petroleum. ... 

Thallium diethyl dinitro-jS-naphthoxide crystallises in dull, greenish-yellow, microscopic, flat-ended blades which decompose at 208° C, The salt is completely soluble in pyridine or acetone, moderately soluble in alcohol, givdng a reddish-yellow solution, slightly soluble in chloroform, ethyl acetate, or ether, becoming bright yellow in the latter, and insoluble in carbon tetrachloride, toluene, or light petroleum. 

Thallium diphenyl acetate is obtained by treating the oxide with boiling glacial acetic acid, the evaporated solution depositing fine, transparent needles, M.pt. 262° C. The salt is completely soluble in hot pyridine, chloroform, toluene, ethyl acetate, or alcohol, moderately soluble in carbon tetrachloride or water, slightly soluble in ether or acetone, and insoluble in light petroleum. 

Thallium diphenyl a-nitroso-j8-naphthoxide crystallises from ether in microscopic, green needles, melting with decomposition at 288 C. The salt gives green solutions in alcohol, acetone, pyridine, toluene, or carbon tetrachloride, and is brown in other solvents, but differs from the corresponding ethyl compound in its insolubility in water. 

Thallium diphenyl trinitro-a-naphthoxide.— This salt crystallises in brilliant orange needles, which melt to a blood-red liquid at 282° C. With the exception of its complete solubility in hot alcohol, it resembles the corresponding ethyl derivative.
