2-Butanone oxime is a chemical compound from the group of oximes . It is a colorless, volatile liquid with an aromatic odor.
Extraction and presentation
2-butanone oxime can be obtained by catalytic ammoxidation of 2-butanone .
use
2-Butanone oxime is added to lacquers and wood preservative glazes based on so-called oxidatively drying binders in low concentrations (<1%) as anti-skinning agents, which evaporate relatively quickly after the lacquer has been applied. It is also used in polyurethane processing , as a corrosion protection agent and as an intermediate for the production of derived compounds.
proof
After the sample has been properly prepared, the 2-butanone oxime content can be measured by gas chromatography with a nitrogen-selective detector. For thermally unstable substances, e.g. B. prepolymers, analysis using liquid chromatography and quantification using a mass-selective detector (HPLC / MS) is recommended. The sample matrix is separated by chromatography on a reversed phase column and the mass of the butanone oxime is detected. The advantage of HPLC / MS is that no over-results are generated by cleavage and that the detection sensitivity is significantly lower.
safety instructions
The vapors of 2-butanone oxime can form an explosive mixture with air when heated above its flash point of 58 ° C. It should also be noted that the compound has been shown to be carcinogenic in animal experiments ( liver carcinomas are more likely to develop in mice and rats after a lifetime of inhalation ) and that it causes allergies on skin contact.
In Germany, an occupational exposure limit of 1 mg / m 3 was set for 2-butanone oxime in July 2013 .
In 2013, 2-butanone oxime was included in the EU's ongoing action plan ( CoRAP ) in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1907/2006 (REACH) as part of substance evaluation . The effects of the substance on human health and the environment are re-evaluated and, if necessary, follow-up measures are initiated. The reasons for the uptake of 2-butanone oxime were concerns about its classification as a CMR substance, consumer use , cumulative exposure , high risk characterization ratio (RCR) and widespread use, as well as the suspected dangers of sensitizing properties. The reassessment took place from 2013 and was carried out by Germany . A final report was then published.
