What is diethyl oxalate and what are its uses?

 Diethyl oxalate (C6H10O4) is also known as diethyl oxalate, ethanedioic acid and diethyl ethanedioate. It is a white solid compound synthesised from carbon monoxide and ethanol. It is slightly denser than water and insoluble in water. Diethyl oxalate is available in powder and liquid forms. It is a colourless toxic compound with a characteristic odour. It has important applications in various end-user industries such as pharmaceuticals, agriculture and cosmetics. The compound is mainly used as a raw material or intermediate in the manufacture of phenobarbital and a variety of dyes; it is also used as a solvent in natural and synthetic resins as well as in nitrocellulose lacquers and various chemical synthesis processes. Further, it is used as a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Diethyl oxalate is also used as a cost-effective additive in dye-sensitised solar cells.

Diethyl Oxalate

Diethyl oxalate is used in the production of agrochemicals such as pesticides, fungicides and herbicides. The development of agricultural practices has led to an increase in the production of agrochemicals, which is driving the expansion of the diethyl oxalate market. Explosive population growth leading to increased demand for food, continuous advancement in agricultural technology, limited arable land, advancement in plant breeding and management expertise are the factors leading to increased use of agrochemicals.

Mainly used in the pharmaceutical industry, It is an intermediate of Phenobarbital, Azathioprine, Sulfadimoxine, Sulfamethoxazole, Carboxyphenyl Penicillin, Eepoxicillin, Chloroquine lactate, Thiabendazole and so on. Also used as a solvent for Cellulose esters and Spices; as acetylene extractant and raw materials for dyes, medicines, perfumes, etc.

How to Remove the Protective Film from Stainless Steel?

图片
  The term "stainless steel" refers to a group of metal alloys, each containing at least 10.5% chromium. Stainless steel is easy to clean and resistant to corrosion, making it ideal for appliances, plumbing, cookware, and tools. Stainless steel appliances usually come from shops and are covered with a  protective plastic film  that is held in place by static electricity. Removing this protective film is the first thing you should do once you have brought your stainless steel items home. Step 1 Look for the edge of the protective film. This edge is usually aligned with the edge on the front of the appliance. The edge may also have a tab designed to make removal easier.   Step 2 Insert the tip of a plastic spatula or credit card between the edge of the protective film and the stainless steel. Do not scrape the stainless steel, simply use the plastic to wedge the protective film away from the stainless steel surface.   Step 3 Grasp the part of the  protective ...

Understanding Isobutyltrimethoxysilane: A Comprehensive Overview

图片
  Isobutyltrimethoxysilane is a chemical compound that belongs to the family of organosilicon compounds, playing a crucial role in various industrial applications. This article delves into the properties, applications, and significance of isobutyltrimethoxysilane, shedding light on its versatile nature. Chemical Composition and Structure Isobutyltrimethoxysilane, with the chemical formula (CH3)3SiOC4H9, is a type of silane coupling agent. Silane coupling agents are compounds that contain silicon, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen atoms, with a specific arrangement that imparts unique properties. The isobutyltrimethoxysilane molecule consists of three methoxy (–OCH3) groups attached to a silicon atom, which is further linked to an isobutyl group (–C4H9). Properties of Isobutyltrimethoxysilane Isobutyltrimethoxysilane is known for its exceptional properties, making it a valuable component in various industrial processes. It is a colorless liquid with a characteristic odor, and its chemica...

Why do plano-convex lenses reduce spherical aberration

图片
Spherical Aberration in a Lens If a point object is placed on the axis of the large lens, images Ip and Im will be formed by the paraxial and marginal rays respectively. The paraxial rays of light from the image are at a longer distance from the lens than the marginal rays. The image is not sharp at any point on the axis. If the screen is placed perpendicular to the axis at AB, the image appears to be a circular patch of diameter AB. The patch of diameter AB is called the circle of least confusion and corresponds to the position of the best image. The distance Imap measures the longitudinal spherical aberration and the radius of the circle of least confusion measures the lateral spherical aberration. When the aperture of the lens is relatively large compared to the focal length of the lens, the cones of the rays of light refracted through different zones of the lens surface are not brought to focus at the same point on the axis. The marginal rays come to focus at a nearer...
