2-Ethyl-2-oxazoline (EtOx) is an oxazoline which is used particularly as a monomer for the cationic ring-opening polymerization to poly(2-alkyloxazoline)s.[2] This type of polymers are under investigation as readily water-soluble and biocompatible materials for biomedical applications.[3]

Production

[edit]

From propionic acid and derivatives

[edit]

Carboxylic acids, carboxylic esters, carboxylic amides and nitriles can react with 2-amino alcohols at 200 °C upon dehydration to the corresponding N-(2-hydroxy)carbamide, which react further at 260–280 °C upon dehydration to the 2-alkyl-2-oxazoline.

For example N-(2-hydroxyethyl)propionamide is first formed from propionic acid and ethanolamine in 74% yield which can be dehydrated to give 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline in about 75% yield.[4]

Less drastic reaction conditions require the dehydration of the N-(2-hydroxyethyl)propionamide in vacuo in the presence of iron(III)chloride, which delivers the product in 90% yield.[5] An even higher yield of 96.2% is obtained by heating with zinc acetate.[6]

An economic one-pot reaction is heating the salt of propionic acid with ethanolamine at 200 °C in vacuo in the presence of zinc chloride yielding 82% 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline.[6] From the water-containing distillate pure 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline can be isolated by extraction with diethylbenzene and subsequent distillation[6] or by distillation only after addition of diethyl phosphite or dimethyldichlorosilane. The product can be dried to a residual water content of 10 ppm.[7]

In another one-pot reaction propionic acid is converted first with 2-aminoethanol to 2-hydroxyethylamide, than reacted with boric acid at 130 °C yielding a boric acid ester which is finally thermolyzed at 280 °C in 92% yield to 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline.[8]

From propionic acid and thionyl chloride can be obtained propanoyl chloride, which reacts with ethanolamine in the presence of an acid scavenger (for example pyridine) to N-propionyl-2-aminoethanol. With further thionyl chloride this reacts further to 2-chloroethylamide. With the chloride ion as a better leaving group, this intermediate is cyclized by simple heating to the oxazoline. Water must be excluded due to the tendency of oxazolines towards ring-opening by chloride ions during protonation of the imine nitrogen.[9]

The direct reaction of propanoyl chloride with 2-chloroethylamine hydrochloride in the presence of triethylamine avoids the formation of water.

From propanal

[edit]

Propanal reacts with 2-aminoethanol in t-butanol to 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline in the presence of the iodinating reagent 1,3-diiodo-5,5-dimethylhydantoin (DIH) and potassium carbonate.[10]

Properties

[edit]

2-Ethyl-2-oxazoline is a readily water-soluble, colorless liquid which is also soluble in a variety of organic solvents and possesses an amine-like smell.[11] Aqueous solutions react alkaline. The compound is stable in alkaline but hydrolyses under acid action.

Applications

[edit]

In anhydrous form, 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline is mostly used as a monomer.[2]

The cationic ring-opening polymerization of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline[12] can be initiated by alkylation with e.g. methyl tosylate or triflates (in particular methyl triflate) and leads to the water-soluble poly(2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) which is a propionyl-substituted linear polyethylenimine and can also be seen as a pseudo-polypeptide.[13]

The polymerization of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline can also be carried out as living cationic polymerization.[14]

Copolymers with other 2-alkyl-2-oxazolines[15] and other monomers[16] allow the preparation of random copolymers and block copolymers.

The copolymers obtained can be used as biocompatible drug carriers,[17] in coatings and adhesives, and in many other applications.[18]

The elimination of the propionyl group from poly (2-ethyl-2-oxazoline) yields linear polyethyleneimine.[19][20]
