Описание
Ethyl alcohol, also called ethanol, absolute alcohol, or grain alcohol, is a clear, colorless, flammable
liquid with a pleasant odor. It is associated primarily with alcoholic beverages, but it
has numerous uses in the chemical industry. The word alcohol is derived from the Arabic
word al kuhul, which was a fine powder of the element antimony used as a cosmetic. In
Medieval times, the word al kuhul came to be associated with the distilled products known
as alcohols. The hydroxyl group, -OH, bonded to a carbon, characterizes alcohols. Ethyl is
derived from the root of the two-carbon hydrocarbon ethane.
Химические свойства
In the BP 2009, the term ‘alcohol’; used without other qualification refers to ethanol containing ≥99.5% v/v of C2H6O. The term‘alcohol’, without other qualification, refers to ethanol 95.1–96.9% v/v. Where other strengths are intended, the term ‘alcohol’ or ‘ethanol’is used, followed by the statement of the strength. In the PhEur 6.0, anhydrous ethanol contains not less than 99.5% v/v of C2H6O at 208℃. The term ethanol (96%) is used to describe the material containing water and 95.1–96.9% v/v of C2H6O at 208℃.

История
Alcohol is produced naturally from the fermentation
of sugars, and it is assumed that prehistoric humans consumed alcohol when eating
fermented fruits. The earliest direct evidence of alcohol consumption dates from the Neolithic
period 10,000 years ago and consists of stone jugs used for holding alcoholic beverages.
Ancient records and art from Egypt, Babylon, Mesopotamia, and other early civilizations
indicate the use of alcohol as a beverage, medicine, and ceremonial drink. Records also show
that the intoxicating effects of alcohol were known for thousands of years b.c.e. Alcoholic
drinks were stored in Egyptian burial tombs, and deities devoted to alcoholic beverages were
worshiped by different civilizations. As the human population expanded, alcoholic drinks
assumed a prominent role in different cultures; for example, numerous references are made to
wine in the Bible. Ancient Islamic alchemists advanced the practice of alcohol production by
using distillation techniques. Distilled alcohols began to appear in the Middle Ages and was used in many remedies and medicines. A common practice by alchemists in different regions
was the preparation of special liquors and brews with healing power. Aqua vitae (water of
life) could refer to brandy, gin, whiskey, wine, or another form of alcoholic depending on the
geographic area.
Использование
alcohol (alcohol SD-40; alcohol SDA-40; ethanol; ethyl alcohol) is widely used in the cosmetic industry as an antiseptic as well as a solvent given its strong grease-dissolving abilities. It is often used in a variety of concentrations in skin toners for acne skin, aftershave lotions, perfumes, suntan lotions, and toilet waters. Alcohol dries the skin when used in high concentrations. It is manufactured through the fermentation of starch, sugar, and other carbohydrates.
Подготовка
There are several approaches to the production of ethanol; mainly ethanol is produced by fermentation.
Определение
A colorless volatile liquid
alcohol. Ethanol occurs in intoxicating
drinks, in which it is produced by fermentation
of a sugar:
C6H12O6 → 2C2H5OH + 2CO2
Yeast is used to cause the reaction. At
about 15% alcohol concentration (by volume)
the reaction stops because the yeast is
killed. Higher concentrations of alcohol
are produced by distillation.
Apart from its use in drinks, alcohol is
used as a solvent and to form ethanal. Formerly,
the main source was by fermentation
of molasses, but now catalytic
hydration of ethene is used to manufacture
industrial ethanol. See also methylated
spirits.
Показания
Ethanol is the most widely abused drug in the world.
There are more than 10 million alcoholics in the United
States alone. Excessive consumption of alcoholic beverages
has been linked to as many as half of all traffic accidents,
two-thirds of homicides, and three-fourths of
suicides, and it is a significant factor in other crimes, in
family problems, and in personal and industrial accidents.
The annual cost to the American economy has
been estimated to exceed $100 billion in lost productivity,
medical care, and property damage.
Alcoholism has been difficult to define because of its
complex nature.A person is generally considered an alcoholic,
however, when his or her lifestyle is dominated
by the procurement and consumption of alcoholic beverages
and when this behavior interferes with personal,
professional, social, or family relations.
A light drinker generally is defined as one who consumes
an average of one drink or less per day, usually
with the evening meal; a moderate drinker is one who
has approximately three drinks per day; and a heavy
drinker is one who has five or more drinks per day (or
in the case of binge drinkers, at least once per week with
five or more drinks on each occasion).
Методы производства
Ethanol is manufactured by the controlled enzymatic fermentation
of starch, sugar, or other carbohydrates. A fermented liquid is
produced containing about 15% ethanol; ethanol 95% v/v is then
obtained by fractional distillation. Ethanol may also be prepared by
a number of synthetic methods.
Всемирная организация здравоохранения(ВОЗ)
Ethanol has been used throughout recorded history both in a
medicinal and a social context. It is currently included in pharmaceutical
preparations either as an active or inactive ingredient. At pharmacologically active
doses ethanol is both a powerful cerebral depressant and a drug of addiction. Its
use in pharmaceutical preparations has been severely restricted in several
countries and in 1986 the 39th World Health Assembly adopted a resolution to
prohibit such use except when ethanol is an essential ingredient which cannot be
replaced by an appropriate alternative.
Использование
антисептическое, дезинфицирующее, местнораздражающее.
Общее описание
Reagent Alcohol is denatured alcohol that consists of ethanol, isopropyl alcohol and methyl alcohol in the ratio 90:5:5.
Профиль реактивности
It liberates hydrogen when it reacts withmetal; forms acetaldehyde (toxic, flammable)on catalytic vapor phase dehydrogenation;ethyl ether (flammable) on dehydration withH2SO4 or a heterogeneous catalyst such asalumina, silica, SnCl2, MnCl2, or CuSO4;.
Опасность
Classified as a depressant drug. Though it
is rapidly oxidized in the body and is therefore noncumulative, ingestion of even moderate amounts
causes lowering of inhibitions, often succeeded by
dizziness, headache, or nausea. Larger intake causes
loss of m
Воспламеняемость и взрывоопасность
Ethanol is a flammable liquid (NFPA rating = 3), and its vapor can travel a considerable distance to an ignition source and "flash back." Ethanol vapor forms explosive mixtures with air at concentrations of 4.3 to 19% (by volume). Hazardous gases produced in ethanol fires include carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. Carbon dioxide or dry chemical extinguishers should be used for ethanol fires.

Фармацевтические приложения
Ethanol and aqueous ethanol solutions of various concentrations are widely used in pharmaceutical
formulations and cosmetics. Although ethanol is
primarily used as a solvent, it is also employed as a disinfectant, and
in solutions as an antimicrobial preservative. Topical ethanol
solutions are used in the development of transdermal drug delivery
systems as penetration enhancers. Ethanol has also been used
in the development of transdermal preparations as a co-surfactant.
Контактные аллергены
Ethanol is widely used for its solvent and antiseptic
properties. It is rather an irritant and sensitization has
rarely been reported.
Механизм действия
A great deal of attention has been focused on a class of
proteins termed the ligand-gated ion channels as being
important to the mechanism of action of alcohol.These
integral membrane proteins function as gates or pores
that allow the passage of certain ions into and out of
neurons upon binding of the appropriate neurotransmitter.
This flux of ions largely determines the degree of
neuronal activity. Two distinct types of ligand-gated
ion channels are particularly sensitive to concentrations
of alcohol that produce intoxication and sedation.
These are the α-aminobutyric acid (GABA) chloride
ionophore and the N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) subtype
of glutamate receptor. The GABA–chloride ion
channel reduces neuronal activity by hyperpolarizing
the neurons, while activation of the NMDA receptor
causes neuronal depolarization or excitation. Alcohol
has been shown to increase chloride flux through the
GABAA receptor and reduce calcium flux through the
NMDA receptor. These actions result in powerful suppression
of nerve cell activity, which is consistent with
the depressant actions of alcohol in the brain.
Клиническое использование
Generally, no treatment is required for acute ethanol intoxication.
Allowing the individual to sleep off the effects
of ethanol ingestion is the usual procedure.
Hangovers are treated similarly; that is, no effective
remedy exists for a hangover, except for controlling the
amount of ethanol consumed. Sometimes ethanol overdose
is a medical emergency. For example, prompt treatment
is required if the patient is in danger of dying of
respiratory arrest, is comatose, has dilated pupils, is hypothermic,
or displays tachycardia.
Treatment for severe ethanol overdose is generally
supportive. Increased intracranial pressure can be relieved
by intravenous administration of hypertonic
mannitol. Hemodialysis can accelerate the removal of
ethanol from the body. Stimulants of ethanol metabolism,
such as fructose, are not sufficiently effective, and
use of analeptics is not recommended because of the possibility
of precipitating convulsions.
The immediate concern in the treatment of alcoholics is
detoxification and management of the ethanol withdrawal
syndrome. Another pharmacological approach is the use of anticraving
drugs, for example serotonin uptake inhibitors,dopaminergic agonists, and opioid antagonists.The only
treatment that has shown considerable promise is one
that uses the opioid antagonist naltrexone.
Побочные эффекты
Acute Ethanol Intoxication and Hangover
Ethanol intoxication is probably the best-known form
of drug toxicity. Intoxicated individuals are a threat to
themselves and others, particularly if they attempt to
drive or operate machinery. Although death can result
from ethanol overdose, usually the patient lapses into a
coma before ingesting lethal quantities. Ethanol intoxication
is sometimes mistakenly diagnosed as diabetic
coma, schizophrenia, overdosage of other CNS depressant
drugs, or skull fracture. An additional feature commonly
associated with excessive ethanol consumption is
difficulty in regulating body temperature. Hypothermia
frequently results, with body temperature falling toward
that of the ambient environment. This problem can be
particularly severe in the elderly, who normally have
difficulty regulating their body temperature.
One of the consequences of ethanol intoxication is
the hangover, a condition characterized by headache,
nausea, sweating, and tremor. Although unpleasant, a
hangover is not dangerous, even though the person having
one may feel otherwise.
Возможный контакт
Ethyl alcohol is used, topical antiinfective agent; solvent to make beverages; in the chemical
synthesis of a wide variety of compounds, such as acetaldehyde, ethyl ether, ethyl chloride, and butadiene. It is a solvent
or processing agent in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals;
plastics, lacquers, polishes, plasticizers, perfumes, cosmetics,
rubber accelerators; explosives, synthetic resins; nitrocellulose, adhesives, inks, and preservatives. It is also used as an
antifreeze and as a fuel. It is an intermediate in the manufacture of many drugs and pesticides.
Канцерогенность
In 1987, the International Agency
for Research on Cancer (IARC) evaluated the cancer data on
ethanol and alcoholic beverages in humans and animals
. The IARC concluded that there was inadequate
evidence for the carcinogenicity of ethanol and of alcoholic
beverages in experimental animals, but there was sufficient
evidence for the carcinogenicity of alcoholic beverages in
humans. The IARC classified alcoholic beverages as a Group
1 carcinogen based on the occurrence of malignant tumors of
the oral cavity, pharynx, larynx, esophagus, and liver that
have been causally related to the consumption of alcoholic
beverages.

Экологическая судьба
If released to the environment from natural or anthropogenic
sources, ethanol will preferentially partition to the soil, water,
and air. Bioconcentration and bioaccumulation potential
is anticipated to be low based upon the estimated bioconcentration
factor and experimental octanol/water partition
coefficient. If released into water, ethanol’s half-life is less than
10 days. The half-life upon release to air is less than 5 days,
where wet deposition removal predominates. Biodegradation
and volatilization are expected to be important fate and
transport processes for ethanol.
