09-11-2021-2141 - β-Propiolactone

 β-Propiolactone is an organic compound of the lactone family, with a four-membered ring. It is a colorless liquid with a slightly sweet odor, highly soluble in water and miscible with ethanolacetonediethyl ether and chloroform.[2][3] The word propiolactone usually refers to this compound, although it may also refer to α-propiolactone.

β-Propiolactone is prepared industrially by the reaction of formaldehyde and ketenein the presence of aluminium- or zinc chloride as catalyst:[4]

Industrial synthesis of beta-propiolactone

In the research laboratory, propiolactones have been produced by the carbonylationof epoxides.[5]

β-Propiolactone readily polymerizes even at room temperature.[citation needed]

It reacts with many nucleophiles in a ring-opening reactions. With water hydrolysisoccurs to produce 3-hydroxypropionic acid (hydracryclic acid). Ammonia gives the β-alanine, which is a commercial process.[4]

Propiolactone was once widely produced as an intermediate in the production of acrylic acid and its esters. That application has been largely displaced in favor of safer and less expensive alternatives. β-Propiolactone is an excellent sterilizing and sporicidal agent, but its carcinogenicity precludes that use.[2] It is used to inactivate a wide variety of viruses,[6] for example as a step in vaccine production.[7] The principal use of propiolactone is an intermediate in the synthesis of other chemical compounds.[4]

Ozonolysis is an organic reaction where the unsaturated bonds of alkenesalkynes, or azo compounds are cleaved with ozone. Alkenes and alkynes form organic compounds in which the multiple carbon–carbon bond has been replaced by a carbonyl group[1][2][3] while azo compounds form nitrosamines.[4] The outcome of the reaction depends on the type of multiple bond being oxidized and the work-upconditions.

Diketene is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H4O2, and which is sometimes written as (CH2CO)2. It is formed by dimerization of ketene, H2C=C=O. Diketene is a member of the oxetane family. It is used as a reagent in organic chemistry.[1] It is a colorless liquid.

Ketene is generated by dehydrating acetic acid at 700–750 °C in the presence of triethyl phosphate as a catalyst or by the thermolysis of acetone at 600–700 °C in the presence of carbon disulfide as a catalyst.[2]

Malonic acid (IUPAC systematic namepropanedioic acid) is a dicarboxylic acidwith structure CH2(COOH)2. The ionized form of malonic acid, as well as its estersand salts, are known as malonates. For example, diethyl malonate is malonic acid's diethyl ester. The name originates from the Greek word μᾶλον (malon) meaning 'apple'.

Carbon suboxide, or tricarbon dioxide, is an oxide of carbon with chemical formulaC

 or O=C=C=C=O. Its four cumulative double bonds make it a cumulene. It is one of the stable members of the series of linear oxocarbons O=Cn=O, which also includes carbon dioxide (CO2) and pentacarbon dioxide (C

The substance was discovered in 1873 by Benjamin Brodie by subjecting carbon monoxide to an electric current. He claimed that the product was part of a series of "oxycarbons" with formulas Cx+1Ox, namely C2O, C

He assumed it was the same product obtained by electric discharge and proposed the formula C

Acetolactone or α-acetolactone is an organic compound with formula C2H2O2. It is the smallest member of the lactone family but can also be described as the epoxide of ketene. The compound was described in 1997 as a transient species in mass spectrometry experiments.[1]

Although acetolactone itself has not been isolated in bulk, the related species bis(trifluoromethyl)acetolactone ((CF3)2C2O2), which enjoys a degree of electronic stabilisation from its two trifluoromethyl groups, is known and has a half-life of 8 h at 25 °C. This compound is prepared by photolysis of bis(trifluoromethyl)malonyl peroxide.[2]

Oxalic anhydride or ethanedioic anhydride, also called oxiranedione, is a hypothetical organic compound, one of several isomers having the formula C2O3 that have been studied computationally. It can be viewed as the anhydride of oxalic acidor the two-fold ketone of ethylene oxide. It is an oxide of carbon (an oxocarbon).

The simple compound apparently has yet to be observed (as of 2009). In 1998, however, Paolo Strazzolini and others have claimed the synthesis of dioxane tetraketone (C4O6), which can be viewed as the cyclic dimer of oxalic anhydride.[1]

It has been conjectured to be a fleeting intermediate in the thermal decomposition of certain oxalates[2] and certain chemoluminescent reactions of oxalyl chloride.[3]

The chemical compound 1,2-dioxetanedione, or 1,2-dioxacyclobutane-3,4-dione, often called peroxyacid ester, is an unstable oxide of carbon (an oxocarbon) with formula C2O4. It can be viewed as a double ketone of 1,2-dioxetane (1,2-dioxacyclobutane), or a cyclic dimer of carbon dioxide.[1]

In ordinary conditions, it quickly decomposes to carbon dioxide (CO2) even at 180 K (−93.1 °C), but can be detected by mass spectrometry and other techniques.[2][3]

1,2-Dioxetanedione is an intermediate in the chemoluminescent reactions used in glowsticks.[4][5] The decomposition proceeds via a paramagnetic oxalate biradicalintermediate.[6]

Recently it has been found that a high-energy intermediate in one of these reactions (between oxalyl chloride and hydrogen peroxide in ethyl acetate), which is presumed to be 1,2-dioxetanedione, can accumulate in solution at room temperature (up to a few micromoles at least), provided that the activating dye and all traces of metals and other reducing agents are removed from the system, and the reactions are carried out in an inert atmosphere.[7]
