1-Ethynylcyclohexanol (ECX) is an alkynyl alcohol derivative which is both a synthetic precursor to, and an active metabolite of the tranquilizer ethinamate, and has similar sedative, anticonvulsant and muscle relaxant effects. It has been sold as a designer drug, first being identified in the UK in March 2012. [1] [2] [3] [4]
Ethinamate (1-ethynylcyclohexanone carbamate) is synthesized by combining acetylene with cyclohexanone to make 1-ethynylcyclohexanol, and then transforming this into a carbamate by the subsequent reaction with phosgene, and later with ammonia. Some lithium metal or similar is used to make the acetylene react with the cyclohexanone in the first ...
It was first prepared by the free-radical reaction of cyclohexane using carbon disulfide as a sulfur source. [1] It is produced industrially by the hydrogenation of cyclohexanone in the presence of hydrogen sulfide over a metal sulfide catalyst: C 6 H 10 O + H 2 S + H 2 → C 6 H 11 SH + H 2 O
Ortho esters are readily hydrolyzed in mild aqueous acid to form esters: . RC(OR ′) 3 + H 2 O → RCO 2 R ′ + 2 R ′ OH. For example, trimethyl orthoformate CH(OCH 3) 3 may be hydrolyzed (under acidic conditions) to methyl formate and methanol; [5] and may be further hydrolyzed (under alkaline conditions) to salts of formic acid and methanol.
In chemistry, the ECW model is a semi-quantitative model that describes and predicts the strength of Lewis acid–Lewis base interactions. Many chemical reactions can be described as acid–base reactions, so models for such interactions are of potentially broad interest. The model initially assigned E and C parameters to
1-Hexanol (IUPAC name hexan-1-ol) is an organic alcohol with a six-carbon chain and a condensed structural formula of CH 3 (CH 2) 5 OH. This colorless liquid is slightly soluble in water, but miscible with diethyl ether and ethanol .
In organic chemistry, a diethynylbenzene dianion is an anion consisting of two ethynyl anions as substituents on a benzene ring. With the chemical formula C 6 H 4 C 2− 4, three positional isomers are possible, differing in the relative positions of the two substituents around the ring:
Acetic anhydride, or ethanoic anhydride, is the chemical compound with the formula (CH 3 CO) 2 O. Commonly abbreviated Ac 2 O, it is the simplest isolable anhydride of a carboxylic acid and is widely used as a reagent in organic synthesis. It is a colorless liquid that smells strongly of acetic acid, which is formed by its reaction with ...
