The Reaction of Hydantoins with Vinyl Ethers and Vinyl Acetate

Vinyl Acetate

Non-isothermal crystallization and melting of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymers with different vinyl acetate contents

Non-isothermal crystallization and subsequent melting of three grades of ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) technique. The DSC crystallization curves show that vinyl acetate (VAc) content has the same effect on the onset, peak and final crystallization temperatures, and these copolymers have almost the same spacing of thermal windows un...

Vinyl acetate formation by the reaction of ethylene with acetate species on oxygen-covered Pd(111).

The reaction pathway of vinyl acetate synthesis is scrutinized by reacting gas-phase ethylene (at an effective pressure of 1 x 10-4 Torr) with eta2-acetate species (with a coverage of 0.31 +/- 0.02 monolayer) on a Pd(111)-O(2x2) model catalyst surface in ultrahigh vacuum. It is found that the 1414 cm-1 infrared feature due to the symmetric OCO stretching mode of the acetate species decreases in...

Enhanced Controlled Transdermal Delivery of Mexazolam Using Ethylene-vinyl Acetate

   Repeated oral administration of mexazolam, an anti-anxiety agent, may cause adverse effects such as gastric disturbance, drowsiness, and ataxia due to transiently high blood levels. Transdermal administration would avoid the systemic side effects and gastric disorders after oral administration. We have developed a matrix using ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA), a heat-processible and flexible mat...

Reactions of vinyl ethers with cobalamins and cobaloximes.

Sir: We recently reported 1 that cobaloximes and cobalamins reacted with vinyl ethers, in the presence of alcohols, to give aceta Is containing cobalt-carbon cr-bonds. On the basis of these, and earlier 2 experiments, we suggested that the reactions proceeded via the intermediary of a Co(lII)-olefin 7r-complex. Schrauzer, et al.,3 then reported that they were unable to confirm our results and c...
