A useful phase transfer catalyst. | [Definition]
ChEBI: 18-crown-6 is a crown ether that is cyclooctadecane in which the carbon atoms at positions 1, 4, 7, 10, 13 and 16 have been replaced by oxygen atoms. It has a role as a phase-transfer catalyst. It is a crown ether and a saturated organic heteromonocyclic parent. | [Synthesis Reference(s)]
The Journal of Organic Chemistry, 39, p. 2445, 1974 DOI: 10.1021/jo00930a037 | [General Description]
18-Crown-6 is the simplest crown ether that can be prepared by reacting triethylene glycol with triethylene glycol dichloride in the presence of potassium hydroxide as a base. 18-Crown-6 can solubilize metal salts, particularly potassium salts, in nonpolar and dipolar aprotic solvents. Thus, it is widely used as a phase transfer catalyst. It can also be used as a metal complexing agent to prepare a variety of molecular complexes. | [Purification Methods]
Recrystallise it from acetonitrile and dry it in a vacuum. Purify it also by precipitating the 18-crown-6/nitromethane 1:2 complex with Et2O/nitromethane (10:1 mixture). The complex is decomposed in vacuum whereby 18-crown-6 distils off under the reduced pressure. [Beilstein 19/12 V 601.] |
