- Synthesis of [14C]-Labelled glycidyl and glycerol ethers of aliphatic and aromatic alcohols.
-
The synthesis of [14C]-labelled glycidyl ethers and the corresponding glycerol ethers is described for the monofunctional compounds 1-dodecanol and ortho-cresol and the bifunctional compounds 4,4'-dihydroxy-3,3',5,5'-tetramethyl biphenyl and 1,6-hexanediol. The synthesis is based on reaction between the alcohol and [U-14C]-epichlorohydrin. The aromatic compounds have been converted to the corresponding glycidyl ethers by using sodium hydroxide and the aliphatic compounds by using tin(IV) chloride as a catalyst. Thus radio-labelled glycidyl ethers were obtained in yields between 50-80, with a chemical purity of > 92 and a radiochemical purity of > 95 by HPLC. The specific activities of the glycidyl ethers were approximately 0.2 mCi/mmol for the monofunctional compounds and approximately 0.4 mCi/mmol for the bifunctional compounds.
