Бета-пропиолактон химические свойства, назначение, производство
Описание
Beta-propiolactone is a colorless liquid with a strong, slightly
sweet odor. It may occur naturally, but no clear documentation
of its occurrence in nature was found, and it must be synthesized
for commercial purposes. Beta-propiolactone is unstable
at room temperature but stable when stored at 5 ℃ in glass
containers.
Its tendency to be unstable and react with other molecules in
the vicinity is responsible for both its toxicity and its usefulness.
Significant commercial production of beta-propiolactone took
place during the late 1950s through the mid-1970s, when it was
widely used in chemical synthesis in reactions with other
molecules to produce new chemicals. All lactones are characterized
by a ring structure consisting of two or more carbon
atoms – as can be seen from its structure, beta-propiolactone
has three in its ring – and a single oxygen, coupled with an
adjacent ketone. The fewer the carbons in the ring, the more
‘strained’ is the ring structure and the more unstable and reactive
its characteristics. When the ring bonds break, the betapropiolactone
molecules attach to other nearby molecules.
Химические свойства
β-Propiolactone is a colorless liquid which slowly hydrolyzes to hydracrylic acid and must be cooled to remain stable. It reacts with alcohols, acid chlorides, ammonia, and water to yield β-substituted propionic acid derivatives. The most important characteristic of the substance is its ability to polymerize. This highly exothermic process occurs simply by warming, although it is also catalyzed by both acid and base.
Физические свойства
β-Propiolactone is a colorless, highly reactive liquid,thatis solublein water, alcohol, acetone, and chloroform (solubilityinwaterat 25℃, 37 vol %).
Использование
Reacts with bacteriphage DNA causing inactivation, repair and recombination
Общее описание
A colorless liquid with a slightly sweetish, pungent odor. Used as an intermediate in organic synthesis; disinfectant, sterilant for blood plasma, tissue grafts, vaccines, enzymes and surgical instruments.
Реакции воздуха и воды
Slow reaction with water to form beta- hydroxypropionic acid.
Профиль реактивности
2-Oxetanone is an ester. Esters react with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated by the interaction of esters with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing esters with alkali metals and hydrides. 2-Oxetanone may be incompatible with alkalis.
Опасность
Strong skin and upper respiratory tract irri-
tant, skin cancer. Possible carcinogen. Worker expo-
sure should be minimized.
Угроза здоровью
The toxicity potential of 2-Oxetanone via inhalation or ingestion is high; may cause death or permanent injury after very short exposures to small quantities. It is a carcinogen.
Пожароопасность
Containers may explode. When heated to decomposition, 2-Oxetanone emits acrid smoke and fumes. Stable when stored at 41F. Avoid storing in areas of exposure to the direct rays of the sun and in areas of high fire hazard. Tends to polymerize on storage. Avoid elevated temperatures.
Профиль безопасности
Confirmed carcinogen
with experimental carcinogenic,
neoplastigenic, and tumorigenic data. Poison
by inhalation. Moderately toxic by
intraperitoneal route. An initiator. Human mutation data reported. When heated to
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and
irritating fumes.
Возможный контакт
β-Propiolactone is used as a chemical
intermediate in synthesis of acrylic acid and esters, acrylate
plastics; as a vapor sterilizing agent; phase disinfectant;
and a viricidal agent.
Канцерогенность
β-Propiolactone is reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogenbased on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity from studies in experimental animals.
Экологическая судьба
Chemical/Physical. Slowly hydrolyzes to hydracrylic acid (Windholz et al., 1983). In a reactor
heated to 250 °C and a pressure of 12 mmHg, β-propiolactone decomposed to give equal amounts
of ethylene and carbon dioxide (James and Wellington, 1969).
