Related Products of 1888-91-1,Some common heterocyclic compound, 1888-91-1, name is N-Acetylcaprolactam, molecular formula is C8H13NO2, traditional synthetic route has been very mature, but the traditional synthetic route has various shortcomings, such as complicated route, low yield, poor purity, etc, below Introduce a new synthetic route.
The following five acetyl donating compounds were assessed at the outset: [0114] 1. N-acetoxysuccinimide [0115] 2. N-acetylsuccinimide [0116] 3. N-acetylcaprolactam [0117] 4. N,N,N,N-tetraacetylethyidiamine (TAED) [0118] 5. N,N,N-triacetylethylenediamine [0119] 6. Pentaacetylglucose [0120] Among these five compounds, only N-acetylcaprolactam is in the liquid state at ambient temperature. Some of the compounds are available on the market, although it was possible to carry out their synthesis by method available in the state of the art. [0121] From a preliminary assessment, it was observed that: [0122] Although poorly soluble in water, the first two compounds rapidly undergo perhydrolysis, once dispersed in a hydroalcoholic solution based on 3% w/w hydrogen peroxide; however, by being very reactive, they are highly sensitive to air moisture, so much so that their storage requires too severe conditions for use and above all for standard shipping. [0123] The third compound tends to separate at the bottom, once dispersed in a hydrophilic environment; however, it dissolves in the few moments after mixing owing to advancement of the perhydrolysis reaction and the solubilisation of the reaction by-products. This compound is also to be regarded as a medium fast rate N-acetylating agent and does not cause any particular problem, if suitably stored in tight-sealed vessels. [0124] The fourth compound is very well-known in the field of decontaminating, detergent and bleaching formulations and is a fast-rate acetylating agent even though it exhibits little solubility in water, particularly at ambient temperature and when the solution has a neutral-acidic pH. [0125] Finally, the fifth and the sixth compounds from a preliminary assessment were found to be weak acetylating agents and also poorly miscible with water.
These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route N-Acetylcaprolactam, its application will become more common.
