3422-31-9 - Introduction
DL-β-hydroxylauric ACID (DL-B-HYDROXYMYRISTIC ACID) is an organic compound with the chemical structure β-hydroxy derivative of Tetradecanoic ACID. The following is a description of the properties, uses, preparation and safety information of DL-β-hydroxylauric acid:
Nature:
DL-β-hydroxylauric acid is a colorless to pale yellow solid with a special odor. It is a kind of fatty acid, which can be dissolved in organic solvents such as ethanol and dimethylformamide at normal temperature. Its solubility in water is very poor.
Use:
DL-β-hydroxylauric acid is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals and detergents. It can be used as a surfactant and lubricant to improve the stability and gloss of the product. In addition, it can also be used to prepare emulsifiers, moisturizers, and hair care products.
Preparation Method:
DL-β-hydroxylauric acid can be prepared by the Kolbe-Schmitt reaction of phenol. First, phenol and sodium carbonate esterification under alkaline conditions to produce phenol ester. Then, under the conditions of high temperature and high pressure, the phenol Ester is carboxylated to produce DL-β-hydroxylauric acid.
Safety Information:
DL-β-hydroxylauric acid is generally considered safe, but safety measures during use and storage are still required. Avoid skin contact and inhalation, wear protective gloves and breathing apparatus if necessary. If contact or ingestion occurs, rinse immediately with water and seek medical help. During storage, DL-beta-hydroxylauric acid should be stored in a dry, ventilated and dark place, away from open flames and high temperatures.
