General Description

8-DIMETHYLAMINO-1-OCTANOL, also known as DMADHO, is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C10H23NO. It is a tertiary amine and an alcohol, with a molecular weight of 173.29 g/mol. This colorless liquid has a strong ammonia-like odor and is soluble in water. DMADHO is commonly used as a surfactant and emulsifier in personal care products such as shampoos, conditioners, and lotions. It is also utilized as a corrosion inhibitor in metalworking fluids and as a flotation agent in the mining industry. Additionally, DMADHO is used as a component in organic synthesis and as an intermediate in the production of pharmaceuticals and agrichemicals. However, it is important to handle this chemical with care as it can be harmful if ingested, inhaled or comes into contact with skin and eyes.

EVOLUTION THERMIQUE DE N-OXYDES D'ω-DIALKYLAMINO ALCANOLS-1

The thermolysis of ω-dimethylamino-1-alkanol N-oxides affords ω-hydroxy-1-alkenes with dimethylhydroxylamine in good yields.The other basic products (amino alcohol and isoxazolidine) involve oxidation-reduction process between the tertiary amine N-oxide and dimethylhydroxylamine, followed by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction.Pyrolysis of 5-piperidino-1-pentanol N-oxide proceeds on a path similar to the N-dimethyl compounds.The elimination of an hydrogen atom of the heterocycle does not occur: the preferred planar transition state cannot be attained because of thesteric requirements of the ring.

ETUDE DES INTERACTIONS ENTRE FONCTIONS ALCOOL ET AMINE: EVOLUTION THERMIQUE D'HYDROXYDES ET DE SELS D'ω-TRIALKYLAMMONIO ALCANOLS-1

The thermolysis of ω-hydroxyalkyltrialkylammonium hydroxides (Φ=4-8) was investigated: Elimination to alkenol competes with substitution to amino alcohol; the hydroxy group can be alkylated into aliphatic ethers by an intermolecular process; the intramolecular cyclization into cyclic ethers is important only when ω=4.Substitution reaction in amino alcohols is the main pathway for the thermolysis of ω-hydroxyalkyltrimethylammonium acetates (ω=5,6) and chloride (ω=6).
