Propargyl alcohol (according to IUPAC nomenclature: prop-2- yn -1-ol ) is an organic-chemical compound from the group of alkynols . It is an intermediate product in the chemical industry .
Extraction and presentation
Propargyl alcohol is produced on an industrial scale by the Reppe process (ethynylation). Thereby responding acetylene in large excess with formaldehyde under copper (I) acetylide - catalysis at temperatures from 95 to 150 ° C and pressures of from 2 to 3: propargyl alcohol.
properties
The flammable, colorless liquid has a characteristic odor. With a flash point of 33 ° C, explosive mixtures can form with the air above this temperature. The explosion range is between 2.8% by volume (66 g / m 3 ) as the lower explosion limit (LEL) and 78% by volume (1817 g / m 3 ) as the upper explosion limit (UEL). The steam is heavier than air. The ignition temperature is 365 ° C. The substance therefore falls into temperature class T2. Propargyl alcohol can be polymerized under the influence of heat, light, oxidizing agents and peroxides . Violent reactions with the development of heat can take place with oxidizing agents. Exceeding the occupational exposure limit cannot be determined from the smell.
Propargyl alcohol, in the presence of gold catalysts and methanol to a cyclic dimeric bisketal be implemented, eluting with 93% yield the trans - isomer is formed.
use
Propargyl alcohol is used, among other things, as a corrosion inhibitor for steel (against attack by acids), as a stabilizer for chloroalkanes and as an intermediate for organic synthesis.
