Usage

Description

Ethoxyacetic acid, also known as 2-ethoxyacetic acid, is an organic compound with the chemical formula C4H8O3. It is a colorless liquid with a slight odor and is soluble in water. Ethoxyacetic acid is an important intermediate in the synthesis of various chemicals and pharmaceuticals.

Uses

Used in Toxicity Evaluation:
Ethoxyacetic acid is used as a biomarker of exposure to alkyl-substituted ethylene glycols and other aliphatic ethers. It is used to evaluate toxicity in embryonic stem cell tests in mice, providing valuable insights into the potential harmful effects of these substances on developing organisms.
Used in Chemical Synthesis:
Ethoxyacetic acid serves as a precursor in the preparation of various chemicals, including ethoxy-acetic acid ethoxymethyl ester. This ester is an important intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals, and other specialty chemicals.
Used in Environmental Monitoring:
Ethoxyacetic acid can be used as a biomarker to monitor the presence and levels of alkyl-substituted ethylene glycols and other aliphatic ethers in the environment. This information is crucial for assessing the potential risks associated with these chemicals and implementing appropriate measures to mitigate their impact on ecosystems and human health.

Air & Water Reactions

Water soluble.

Reactivity Profile

An ether and organic acid. Carboxylic acids donate hydrogen ions if a base is present to accept them. They react in this way with all bases, both organic (for example, the amines) and inorganic. Their reactions with bases, called "neutralizations", are accompanied by the evolution of substantial amounts of heat. Neutralization between an acid and a base produces water plus a salt. Carboxylic acids with six or fewer carbon atoms are freely or moderately soluble in water; those with more than six carbons are slightly soluble in water. Soluble carboxylic acid dissociate to an extent in water to yield hydrogen ions. The pH of solutions of carboxylic acids is therefore less than 7.0. Many insoluble carboxylic acids react rapidly with aqueous solutions containing a chemical base and dissolve as the neutralization generates a soluble salt. Carboxylic acids in aqueous solution and liquid or molten carboxylic acids can react with active metals to form gaseous hydrogen and a metal salt. Carboxylic acids, like other acids, react with cyanide salts to generate gaseous hydrogen cyanide. Flammable and/or toxic gases and heat are generated by the reaction of carboxylic acids with diazo compounds, dithiocarbamates, isocyanates, mercaptans, nitrides, and sulfides. Carboxylic acids, especially in aqueous solution, also react with sulfites, nitrites, thiosulfates (to give H2S and SO3), dithionites (SO2), to generate flammable and/or toxic gases and heat. Their reaction with carbonates and bicarbonates generates a harmless gas (carbon dioxide) but still heat. Like other organic compounds, carboxylic acids can be oxidized by strong oxidizing agents and reduced by strong reducing agents. These reactions generate heat.

Aqueous Persistent Noncovalent Ion-Pair Cooperative Coupling in a Ruthenium Cobaltabis(dicarbollide) System as a Highly Efficient Photoredox Oxidation Catalyst

An original cooperative photoredox catalytic system, [RuII(trpy)(bpy)(H2O)][3,3′-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]2 (C4; trpy = terpyridine and bpy = bipyridine), has been synthesized. In this system, the photoredox metallacarborane catalyst [3,3′-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]- ([1]-) and the oxidation catalyst [RuII(trpy)(bpy)(H2O)]2+ (C2′) are linked by noncovalent interactions and not through covalent bonds. The noncovalent interactions to a large degree persist even after water dissolution. This represents a step ahead in cooperativity avoiding costly covalent bonding. Recrystallization of C4 in acetonitrile leads to the substitution of water by the acetonitrile ligand and the formation of complex [RuII(trpy)(bpy)(CH3CN)][3,3′-Co(1,2-C2B9H11)2]2 (C5), structurally characterized. A significant electronic coupling between C2′ and [1]- was first sensed in electrochemical studies in water. The CoIV/III redox couple in water differed by 170 mV when [1]- had Na+ as a cation versus when the ruthenium complex was the cation. This cooperative system leads to an efficient catalyst for the photooxidation of alcohols in water, through a proton-coupled electron-transfer process. We have highlighted the capacity of C4 to perform as an excellent cooperative photoredox catalyst in the photooxidation of alcohols in water at room temperature under UV irradiation, using 0.005 mol % catalyst. A high turnover number (TON = 20000) has been observed. The hybrid system C4 displays a better catalytic performance than the separated mixtures of C2′ and Na[1], with the same concentrations and ratios of Ru/Co, proving the history relevance of the photocatalyst. Cooperative systems with this type of interaction have not been described and represent a step forward in getting cooperativity avoiding costly covalent bonding. A possible mechanism has been proposed.

Isopropyl 2-ethoxyacetate—an efficient acylating agent for lipase-catalyzed kinetic resolution of amines in batch and continuous-flow modes

Productivity [conversion (c) and specific reaction rate (rbatchor rflow)] and enantiomer selectivity [enantiomeric ratio (E) and enantiomeric excess (ee) of the products] of ethyl and isopropyl esters of acetic, 2-methoxyacetic and 2-ethoxyacetic acids as acylating agents were compared in the N-acylation of (±)-1-phenylethanamine rac-1 catalyzed by variously immobilized forms of Candida antarctica lipase B (CaLB) using shake flasks and continuous-flow reactors. The effect of the temperature in the 0–80 °C range on productivity and enantiomer selectivity in KRs of rac-1 was investigated with the isopropyl esters in continuous-flow mode using CaLB-filled minireactors. Isopropyl 2-ethoxyacetate surpassed the performance of ethyl 2-methoxyacetate in terms of both productivity (1.9–2.9 times higher rate in batch mode) and enantiomeric selectivity (ee(R)-amide>99.9% compared to 99.8%) providing at 40 °C high volumetric productivity (2.22 kg L?1h?1), specific reaction rate and enantiomeric excess (rflow=783 μmol min?1g?1, ee(R)-2c>99.9%).
