Vinyl laurate was used in the synthesis of laurate and stearate esters of corn starch. It was used as the acyl donor during synthesis of sucrose laurate esters catalyzed by Bacillus pseudofirmus AL-89 . Vinyl laurate was also used in the preparation of chirally deuterated benzyl chlorides.
Uses
Vinyl laurate can be used to synthesize the following:
sucrose laurate esters from sucrose in organic solvents
poly(vinyl laurate) (PVL)latexes
porous conducting ‘‘soft′′ polymer foams which can be used as gas sensors
General Description
Vinyl laurate is a clear, colorless to light yellow colored liquid. The flash point is 125°C. It forms aqueous colloidal microgel by copolymerization with N-isopropylacrylamide. The enzymatic acylation of Avicel cellulose with vinyl laurate, a solvent free reaction system, was studied.
