What are the physical properties of Diethyl Oxalate?
Diethyl oxalate (Diethyl Oxalate) is an organic compound. Its physical properties can be described in many ways.
Looking at its properties, it is a colorless oily liquid under normal circumstances, clear and transparent, flowing like jade liquid. Its taste is fragrant, slightly prickly, and can be detected in the air.
When it comes to the melting point, it is about -40.6 ° C. If it drops to Swain, the liquid gradually condenses and turns into a solid state, but its solidified state does not lose its crystal quality. The boiling point is 185.4 ° C. When the temperature rises to this point, the liquid tumbles and turns into steam.
Its density is about 1.0785 (g/cm ³), which is slightly heavier than water. If it is placed in water, it will slowly sink to the bottom, like the sinking beads of water. And it is mutually soluble with most organic solvents, such as ethanol and ether. When it blends, it is like water and milk, regardless of each other.
And because of its volatility, it is left in the air for a long time, and its amount is gradually reduced, such as the dissipation of mist. The vapor of this substance is heavier than air, and can spread along the ground and accumulate in low-lying places.
In terms of solubility, it is slightly soluble in water. If it is estranged in water, it can only be dispersed in a small amount, and it is difficult to form a whole.
Diethyl oxalate has unique physical properties and is useful in many fields such as chemical industry and medicine. It is effective due to its characteristics and adds color to various processes.
What are the chemical properties of Diethyl Oxalate?
Diethyl oxalate, its chemical properties are quite characteristic. This is a colorless oily liquid with a fragrant smell.
In terms of its chemical properties, hydrolysis is remarkable. In acidic media, diethyl oxalate can slowly hydrolyze to form oxalic acid and ethanol. This hydrolysis process is gradual, and the ester group of diethyl oxalate is gradually broken by hydrogen ions, so this change occurs. In alkaline media, the hydrolysis rate is accelerated, and the reaction is more rapid, resulting in oxalate and ethanol. This basic hydrolysis reaction is often used in organic synthesis as a way to prepare oxalates.
Furthermore, diethyl oxalate has the ability to esterify. It can react with alcohols under acid catalysis to form new ester compounds. This reaction enhances the positive electricity of carbonyl carbon through acid catalysts, making the nucleophilic attack of alcohols more likely to occur, thereby realizing the conversion of ester groups and the formation of new esters.
In addition, diethyl oxalate can also participate in the condensation reaction. Under the action of strong bases, the α-hydrogen of diethyl oxalate can be removed to generate carbon negative ions. This carbon negative ion has high activity and can condensate with other carbonyl-containing compounds to form carbon-carbon bonds. It is widely used in the field of complex molecular construction in organic synthesis.
And diethyl oxalate can be reduced. Under the action of suitable reducing agents, its ester groups can be reduced to alcohol hydroxyl groups to obtain products such as ethylene glycol. This reduction reaction provides an effective path for the preparation of specific alcohols.
The chemical properties of diethyl oxalate play important functions in many fields such as organic synthesis, drug preparation, and fragrance production, and contribute greatly to the development of the chemical industry.
What are the production methods of Diethyl Oxalate?
Diethyl oxalate is an organic compound. There are several common methods for its preparation:
First, oxalic acid and ethanol are used as raw materials for esterification. This reaction needs to be carried out at a suitable temperature and in the presence of a catalyst. Mix oxalic acid with ethanol, add a catalyst such as sulfuric acid, and heat it to react. Sulfuric acid can promote the reaction to form diethyl oxalate. After the reaction is completed, the sulfuric acid needs to be properly treated to remove impurities. The reaction formula is: $H_ {2} C_ {2} O_ {4} + 2C_ {2} H_ {5} OH\ xrightarrow [] {H_ {2} SO_ {4},\ Delta} (C_ {2} H_ {5} O) _ {2} C_ {2} O_ {4} + 2H_ {2} O $.
Second, ethyl chloroacetate is used as raw material and obtained by cyanidation, hydrolysis and esterification. First, ethyl chloroacetate is reacted with sodium cyanide to obtain ethyl cyanoacetate. This step needs to pay attention to the reaction conditions to prevent cyanide from escaping. Ethyl cyanoacetate is then hydrolyzed to form a sodium salt of monoethyl oxalate, then acidified to obtain monoethyl oxalate, and finally esterified with ethanol to obtain diethyl oxalate. The series of reactions is quite complicated, and each step requires precise temperature control and reaction process.
Third, carbon monoxide, ethanol and oxygen are used as raw materials and synthesized under the action of catalysts. This is a relatively novel method, which requires a specific catalyst system, such as metals such as palladium as active components. The raw materials of this method are easy to obtain, but the requirements for reaction equipment and conditions are quite high. Under certain pressure and temperature, carbon monoxide, ethanol and oxygen are reacted on the surface of the catalyst to form diethyl oxalate.
All preparation methods have advantages and disadvantages. In actual production, it is necessary to comprehensively weigh factors such as raw material availability, cost, and product purity to choose the optimal method.
What are the precautions for using Diethyl Oxalate?
Diethyl oxalate (Diethyl Oxalate), the raw material of chemical, is widely used in various fields of industry. When it is used, several things should be paid attention to.
First, it is related to safety. Diethyl oxalate is flammable. When used in places, open flames and heat must be avoided to prevent the risk of fire and explosion. And it has irritation to people, skin, eye contact, or discomfort. When operating, protective equipment, such as gloves and goggles, should be prepared, and the ventilation of the field must be good, so that the gas is concentrated and the poison is avoided.
Second, on storage. It should be stored in cool, dry, and ventilated storage, away from fire and heat sources. The storage area should be equipped with suitable containment materials for leakage emergency departments. It should not be stored in combination with oxygen agents and alkalis, etc., to prevent chemical and life risks.
Third, it involves the use of technology. Operators should be specially trained and abide by regulations. When taking it, the quantity should be precisely controlled to avoid waves and overuse. And in the chemical application, temperature, pressure, time and other conditions should be strictly monitored and adjusted to ensure that it should be carried out smoothly, and the quality and rate of production are guaranteed.
Fourth, talk about waste. Diethyl oxalate is used up, and it should not be discarded indiscriminately. Dispose of it according to ring regulations. Or recycle it, or deal with it through special treatment methods, so that it is harmless to the ring.
In short, when diethyl oxalate is used, safety, storage, technology, and waste should be paid attention to, so as to ensure smooth use, avoid risks, and protect people's safety and environmental health.
