(S)-(-)-PROPYLENE CARBONATE - Introduction
(S)-(-)-propylene carbonate is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H6O3. It is a colorless transparent liquid with a sweet taste. It has a density of about 1.21 g/cm ^ 3, a boiling point of 240-243°C and a melting point of -55°C.
(S)-(-)-propylene carbonate is an important solvent and has a wide range of applications in industry. It can be used as a solvent for polymer materials, a solvent for electrolytes and catalysts, a liquid electrolyte, etc. In addition, it can also be used as a solvent for lithium-ion batteries and an additive for anode materials, and can also be used in electronic devices and coatings.
There are two main methods for preparing (S)-(-)-propylene carbonate. One is obtained by transesterification of acrylic acid and amino methanol. The other is obtained by the addition reaction of methanol amine and carbon dioxide catalyzed by sodium hydroxide of acrylic acid.
Regarding the safety information of (S)-(-)-propylene carbonate, it is often used as a solvent, so it is necessary to pay attention to its volatility and flammability. Keep away from open flames and high temperatures, and maintain a well-ventilated working environment. Wear appropriate protective gloves and goggles during use. At the same time, avoid contact with skin and eyes, and try to avoid inhaling its vapor. In case of contact with skin or eyes, rinse immediately with plenty of water and seek medical advice. In addition, (S)-(-)-propylene carbonate should be stored in sealed containers, away from sources of fire and oxidizing agents.
