Ketones, liquid

Aldehydes are those chemicals with the RCHO group, where R is any organic group. They are generally reactive, present a combustion hazard, and can be toxic. They include benzaldehyde and acetaldehyde. 

Alkylphenols are compounds in which noncyclic carbon chains are attached to a phenol (C6H5OH) group. The simplest members are the isomers of methyl phenol syn. cresol (CH3-C6H4OH). The butylphenols are the group of isomeric alkylphenols in which the butyl group (C4H9-) is attached to the phenol group, such as o-butylphenol. 

Amines contain a functional group based on ammonia (NH3) in which any of the three hydrogens are replaced by a bond to an organic species. Polyamines are those with more than one substituted ammonia group. Amines and polyamines, which include diethylamine and diethylenetriamine, are characteristically basic. They are corrosive to most metals, especially copper. 

Paraffins are the alkane hydrocarbons (straight or branch chained, noncyclic, aliphatic hydrocarbons) the simplest of which is methane, CH4, a gas. With more carbons, paraffins become liquid and eventually waxy solids. Chlo- 

The chloroformate group (-0-C0C1) syn. the chlorocarbonate group, results in compounds such as ethylchloroformate and chloromethylchloroformate which are often flammable, highly irritating and corrosive to the skin, and toxic. They react and decompose with water or heat to form hydrogen chloride gas.

PTHF elastomers have a zigzag planar conformation. Some of typical physical properties are Tm = 43° C, Tg = - 86° C, density approximately 1. Other properties are comparable to those of usual rubbers. PTHF elastomers are soluble in many solvents (THF, aromatic and chlorinated hydrocarbons, esters, ketones, liquid sulfur dioxide, etc.). Aliphatic hydrocarbons in general are nonsolvents. 

Dielectric relaxation times aromatic esters, ethers, ketones, liquid or solution. 

Polyphenylene Sulfoxide (300 to 400°C). This has been recommended for high-temperature thermoplastics such as fluoropolymers, polyphenylene ether, polyphenylene sulfide, polyether ketones, liquid crystal polymers, nylons, and polyetherimide.

An adequate prediction of multicomponent vapor-liquid equilibria requires an accurate description of the phase equilibria for the binary systems. We have reduced a large body of binary data including a variety of systems containing, for example, alcohols, ethers, ketones, organic acids, water, and hydrocarbons with the UNIQUAC equation. Experience has shown it to do as well as any of the other common models. V7hen all types of mixtures are considered, including partially miscible systems, the... 

They are colourless liquids with characteristic odours, and are prepared by the condensation of ketones with alkyl orthoformates in the presence of alcohols, or by the reaction of acetylenes with alcohols in presence of HgO and BF3. In some cases trichloroethanoic acid is used as the catalyst. They lose alcohol when heated and form vinyl ethers. Exchange of alcohol groups occurs when the ketals of the lower alcohols are boiled with alcohols of greater molecular weight. See acetals. 

Me2C = CHCOCH= CMca- Yellow liquid having a camphor-like odour m.p. 28 C, b.p. 198-5°C. It is formed when propanone is saturated with HCl and allowed to stand. Resembles camphor in many of its properties and is a solvent for cellulose nitrate. Used to prepare diisobutyl ketone (reduction). 

The properties of the solids most commonly encountered are tabulated. An important problem arises for petroleum fractions because data for the freezing point and enthalpy of fusion are very scarce. The MEK (methyl ethyl ketone) process utilizes the solvent s property that increases the partial fugacity of the paraffins in the liquid phase and thus favors their crystallization. The calculations for crystallization are sensitive and it is usually necessary to revert to experimental measurement. 

Place 80 g, of hydroxylamine sulphate (or 68-5 g. of the hydrochloride), 25 g. of hydrated sodium acetate, and 100 ml. of water in a 500 ml. flask fitted with a stirrer and a reflux water-condenser, and heat the stirred solution to 55-60°. Run in 35 g (42 nil,) of -hexyl methyl ketone, and continue the heating and vigorous stirring for ij hours. (The mixture can conveniently be set aside overnight after this stage.) Extract the oily oxime from the cold mixture twice with ether. Wash the united ethereal extract once with a small quantity of water, and dry it with sodium sulphate. Then distil off the ether from the filtered extract, preferably using a distillation flask of type shown in Fig. 41 (p. 65) and of ca, 50 ml, capacity, the extract being run in as fast as the ether distils, and then fractionally distil the oxime at water-pump pressure. Collect the liquid ketoxime, b.p. 110-111713 mm. Yield, 30-32 g. 

Acetophenone similarly gives an oxime, CHjCCgHjlCtNOH, of m.p. 59° owing to its lower m.p. and its greater solubility in most liquids, it is not as suitable as the phenylhydrazone for characterising the ketone. Its chief use is for the preparation of 1-phenyl-ethylamine, CHjCCgHslCHNHj, which can be readily obtained by the reduction of the oxime or by the Leuckart reaction (p. 223), and which can then be resolved by d-tartaric acid and /-malic acid into optically active forms. The optically active amine is frequently used in turn for the resolution of racemic acids. 

The industrial process for preparing the reagent usually permits a little hydrolysis to occur, and the product may contain a little free calcium hydroxide or basic chloride. It cannot therefore be employed for drying acids or acidic liquids. Calcium chloride combines with alcohols, phenols, amines, amino-acids, amides, ketones, and some aldehydes and esters, and thus cannot be used with these classes of compounds. 

Metallic sodium. This metal is employed for the drying of ethers and of saturated and aromatic hydrocarbons. The bulk of the water should first be removed from the liquid or solution by a preliminary drying with anhydrous calcium chloride or magnesium sulphate. Sodium is most effective in the form of fine wire, which is forced directly into the liquid by means of a sodium press (see under Ether, Section II,47,i) a large surface is thus presented to the liquid. It cannot be used for any compound with which it reacts or which is affected by alkalis or is easily subject to reduction (due to the hydrogen evolved during the dehydration), viz., alcohols, acids, esters, organic halides, ketones, aldehydes, and some amines. 

The reaction with sodium is by no means an infallible practical test for alcohols since, strictly speaking, it is applicable only to pure anhydrous liquids. Traces of water, present as impurities, would give an initial evolution of hydrogen, but reaction would stop after a time if an alcohol is absent furthermore, certain esters and ketones also evolve hydrogen when treated with sodium (compare Section XI,7,6). It may, however, be assumed that if no hydrogen is evolved in the test, the substance is not an alcohol. 

Acetals are usually liquid they are almost unaffected by alkalis and are not attacked by metallic sodium nor by Fehling s solution. They are identified by reference to the alcohol and aldehyde (or ketone if a ketal) which they yield when hydrolysed in acid solution. Hydrolysis proceeds readily in dilute acid solution e.g., with 3-5 per cent, acid). ... 

The commercial product, m.p. 53-55°, may be used. Alternatively the methyl -naphthyl ketone may be prepared from naphthalene as described in Section IV,136. The Friedel - Crafts reaction in nitrobenzene solution yields about 90 per cent, of the p-ketone and 10 per cent, of the a-ketone in carbon disulphide solution at — 15°, the proportions ore 65 per cent, of the a- and 35 per cent, of the p-isomer. With chlorobenzene ns the reaction medium, a high proportion of the a-ketone is also formed. Separation of the liquid a-isomer from the solid p-isomer in Such mixtures (which remain liquid at the ordinary temp>erature) is readily effected through the picrates the picrate of the liquid a-aceto compound is less soluble and the higher melting. 

The solid appears to be a mixture of the complexes CH,COOH.BF, and 2CH COOH.BF,. The latter appears to be a liquid and is alone soluble in ethylene dichloride the former is a solid. The solid moiioocetic acid complex is obtained by saturating an ethylene dichloride solution of acetic acid with boron trifluoride, filtering and washing the precipitate with the solvent it is hygroscopic and should be protected from moisture. It may be used as required 0-75 mol is employed with 0-26 mol of ketone and 0 6 mol of anhydride. 

Add, with stirring, a solution of 6 8 g. of the fiis-diazo ketone in 100 ml. of warm dioxan to a suspension of 7 0 g. of freshly precipitated silver oxide in 250 ml. of water containing 11 g. of sodium thiosulphate at 75°. A brisk evolution of nitrogen occurs after 1 5 hours at 75°, filter the liquid from the black silver residue. Acidify the almost colourless filtrate with nitric acid and extract the gelatinous precipitate with ether. Evaporate the dried ethereal extract the residue of crude decane-1 10-dicarboxylic acid weighs 4 -5 g. and melts at 116-117°. RecrystaUisation from 20 per cent, aqueous acetic acid raises the m.p. to 127-128°. 

The polyhydric alcohols of Solubility Group II are liquids of relatively high boiling point and may be detected inter alia by the reactions already described for Alcohols (see 6). Compounds containing two hydroxyl groups attached to adjacent carbon atoms (1 2-glyeols), a-hydroxy aldehydes and ketones, and 1 2-diketones may be identified by the periodic acid test, given in reaction 9.
