Usage

Description

Lauryl acetate has a characteristic citrus-rose odor. The corre sponding flavor develops only on dilution. May be prepared by acetylation of lauryl alcohol.

Chemical Properties

Lauryl acetate has a characteristic citrus–rose odor. The corresponding flavor develops only on dilution.

Occurrence

Reported found in sour cherry, cardamom, bitter orange, lime, lemon and mandarin peel oils.

Uses

1-Dodecanol Acetate can be used as a foaming agent in the purification process of quartz sand. Furthermore, it is a main component of the essential oil from the flowers of Etlingera elatior (Jack) R. M. Smith, which is found to be active against Staphylococcus aureus, Bacillus cereus, Candida albicans and Cryptococcus neoformans.

Preparation

By acetylation of lauryl alcohol.

Toxicity evaluation

Both the acute oral LD50 value in rats and the acute dermal LD50 value in rabbits exceeded 5 g/kg (Moreno, 1974). In a study of toxicity to fish, the toxic concentration of lauryl acetate to Carassius auratus and Salmo gairdnerii during a 6-hr observation period at 15°C was found to be 5.20 mg/litre.The surface tension (50.1) was not related directly to the toxicity (Marchetti, 1964).

Dodecyl sodium sulfoacetate synthesis process

The invention relates to the technical field of chemical synthesis processes, particularly to a dodecyl sodium sulfoacetate synthesis process. According to the present invention, by adjusting the feeding weight ratio, optimizing the reaction conditions and improving the dodecyl sodium sulfoacetate synthesis route, the requirements on the compound reaction conditions are low, the control of the reaction is simple, and the yield is increased while the quality of the intermediate product is greatly improved so as to reduce the process control difficulty in the dodecyl sodium sulfoacetate production process and improve the quality and the qualification rate of dodecyl sodium sulfoacetate; and various steps of the preparation process are simple, the solvents and the process conditions are safeand easy to perform, the environmental protection production is achieved, and the method has broad application prospects.

Lipase-mediated selective acetylation of primary alcohols in ethyl acetate

An environmental friendly process to selectively acetylate primary alcohols was demonstrated. The esterification process consists of treatment of a primary alcohol in the presence of immobilized C. antarctica lipase (Novozyme-435) in ethyl acetate at room temperature. Primary alcohols were acetylated in the presence of secondary alcohols and phenols.
