Applications & Uses
Uses
2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol is used as an intermediate in the preparation of 2.5-Dimethyl-2.5-bis(tertbutyl-peroxy)hexane to produce polyethylene copolymers and polyethylene rubbers. It is also could be used to prepared nickel-containing Complex Reducing Agents (termed NiCRA)[1].
Uses
2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol was used in the synthesis of six- and seven-membered heterocyclic boron compounds containing intramolecular N-B bond.
General Description
2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol on heteropoly acid catalyzed dehydration yields cyclic ethers via stereospecific intramolecular SN2 mechanism. It reacts with nitriles in concentrated sulfuric acid to yield Δ1-pyrrolines.
Preparation & Synthesis
Preparation
The raw materials 2,5-Dimethyl-3-hexyne-2,5-diol (37.4 g, 263 mmol), ethyl acetate (60 mL), and Pd/C catalyst (0.285 g, 2.63 mmol, 1 mol %) were added to an autoclave. The hydrogen gas was slowly added to 10 bar. When the hydrogenation reaction was performed for 12 hours and then removed the hydrogen gas. Finally, 2,5-Dimethyl-2,5-hexanediol is obtained by purification.
