Study the Efficiency of Some Esters Based on 2- Ethyl Hexanoic Acid as Synthetic Lubricants

Esters have many important properties, such as biodegradation, low toxicity, good thermal stability and excellent solvability, because these features are definitely the most versatile of the various types of base fluids currently available and can be modified to provide unique physical and chemical properties that can be designed to meet the lubricant industry's challenges. In this article, Reaction was prepared by various branched synthetic esters of 2- ethyl hexanoic acid with different 2 groups of alcohols, the first one (1-hexanol, 2- ethyl hexanol,1-octanol, 1- dodecanol and 1- hexadecanol), and the second group (neopentyl glycol, trimethylol propane and pentaerythritol). All the preparation compound form were confirmed by examine the physical and chemical properties as (Nuclear Magnetic Resonance, Infra-Red Spectroscopy, Total Acid Number, Density, Thermo Gravimetric Analysis TGA, Specific gravity, Reflective index, Molecular weights estimation and flash point). As a synthetic lubricating oil, the performance of these compounds was studied. Prepared compounds have been found to contain low pour point (PP), high viscosity level (VI) and Newtonian fluid for rheological behavior.

A simple and convenient one-pot synthesis of fatty acid esters from hindered alcohols using N,N-dimethylchloro-sulfitemethaniminium chloride as dehydrating agent

N,N-Dimethylchlorosulfitemethaniminium chloride (SOCl2-DMF) has been found to be an efficient reagent for one-pot synthesis of esters from equimolar amounts of fatty acids and hindered alcohols under mild conditions.
