| | delta-Valerolactone Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | δ-valerolactone, also known as 1,5-valerolactone, delta-valerolactone, tetrahydro-2H-2-pyrone, tetrahydro-o-pyrone, tetrahydrocoumarin; the English name is Delta -Valerolactone, the abbreviated name is generally δ -VL or DVL, and the molecular formula is C5H802. | | Uses | Due to its good application flexibility, lower biological toxicity, more derivative compounds, easy polymerization and greatly increase the viscosity of coatings and other characteristics, delta-valerolactone is widely used in polyesters, polyurethanes, special solvents, and coatings. | | Preparation | In the first step, the 1,5-pentanediol raw material is fed into the drying tower for dehydration, to ensure that the water content is less than 1wt%, under optimized conditions, less than 0.5wt%, further optimization, less than 0.1wt%, further optimization situation , Less than 0.05wt%, that is, 500wppm; in the second step, the dried 1,5-pentanediol is mixed with hydrogen and then enters the vaporizer. The molar ratio of hydrogen to 1,5-pentanediol is 10-5:1 The third step will be vaporized 1,5-pentanediol and hydrogen into the dehydrogenation reactor, under the normal pressure of 0.1MPa, 230-270 conditions, under the action of the dehydrogenation catalyst, 1,5-pentanediol Alcohol is converted into δ-valerolactone, in which the yield of δ-valerolactone exceeds 98%, and the water content of the exported crude product is less than 0.5wt%. | | Chemical Properties | clear colorless to pale yellow liquid | | Uses | δ-Valerolactone is a compound commonly used to synthesize copolyesters by means of lipase-catalyzed ring opening polymerization. | | Uses | δ-Valerolactone (tetrahydro-2H-2-pyranone or δ VL) can be used as a monomer unit in the synthesis of poly(δ-valerolactone)s poly(conjugated ester)s via ring-opening polymerization.
It can also be used as a starting material in the synthesis of (+)-guadinomic acid , sodium δ-hydroxyvalerate , methyl δ-hydroxyvalerate , and 5-hydroxyvaleraldehyde. | | Definition | ChEBI: The simplest member of the class of delta-lactone that is tetrahydro-2H-pyran substituted by an oxo group at position 2. | | Synthesis Reference(s) | Canadian Journal of Chemistry, 52, p. 3651, 1974 DOI: 10.1139/v74-546
