Vinyl ethyl ether decomposition temperature

As already described, oxidation of sodium mercaptomaleiioiiitrile (146) formed the dithiete 145, though it was not isolable (62JA4746, 62JA4756, 62JA4772). Decomposition of the trithiole 256 in DME at room temperature also produced 145, which dimerized to yield 257 as the hnal product or was trapped by ethyl vinyl ether to give 258 (62JA4772). 

Most preparations of cyclopropanes involving catalytic decomposition of diaryldiazomethanes have been carried out by using zinc(II) chloride. The best result was achieved when diphenyldiazomethane was decomposed in the presence of ethyl vinyl ether at 25 °C l-ethoxy-2,2-diphenylcyclopropane was isolated in 52 /o yield.In general, the yield of the cyclopropane is sensitive to the temperature at which the reaction is carried out the lower the temperature, the lower the amount of the cyclopropane. Thus, when zinc(II) chloride catalyzed decomposition of diphenyldiazomethane was carried out in the presence of cyclopentadiene, the yield of 6,6-diphenylbicyclo[3.1.0]hex-2-ene (4) drops from 35 /o to 23"/o when the temperature is lowered from 22 °C to <... 

The early hot melt adhesives were not strictly definable as rubber-based adhesives. Most rubber polymers such as natural rubber and random SBR are of such molecular weight and structure that they do not melt readily to a workable coating consistency at a temperature below which thermal degradation and decomposition take place. Certain synthetic polymers, however, lend themselves to the formulation of a wide range of hot melt adhesive compositions. Polyamide and polyester resins, ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA) copolymers, ethylene-ethyl acrylate (EEA) copolymers, low molecular weight polyethylene and amorphous polypropylene, and certain vinyl ethers have found application in hot melt adhesives. These adhesives have found wide use in packaging, industrial, and construction applications.
