biological activity | ethoxyacemic acid is an endogenous metabolite. |
uses | for organic synthesis and biochemical research organic synthesis intermediates. |
production method | the solution of chloroacetic acid and anhydrous ethanol was added to the sodium ethoxide-ethanol solution successively, after heating slowly for 10min, the excess ethanol was distilled off with direct water vapor, the aqueous solution was cooled, concentrated hydrochloric acid was added, and sodium chloride was filtered off. The filtrate was extracted with ether, the ether was distilled off from the extract, and then distilled under reduced pressure to obtain ethoxyacetic acid in a yield of 2.27 by collecting a fraction at 109-111 ° C. (2.40-74% kPa). |
