The metabolic transformation of /2-methoxyethanol/ (2-ME) gives two primary metabolites: /methoxyacetic acid/ (MAA) and 2-methoxyacetyl glycine. Metabolism to carbon dioxide represents a secondary, minor route. The conversion in plasma of 2-ME to MAA is rapid, with a half-life of 0.6 hr in rats, but the excretion of MAA is slow, with a half-life of about 20 hr in the rat and 77 hr in man.
The role of metabolism in 2-methoxyethanol (ME)-induced testicular toxicity has been investigated with Sprague-Dawley rats. Following administration of [(14)C]ME (250 mg/kg, ip) to a group of animals, there was evidence of testicular damage, identified as depletion of the spermatocyte population. Radioactivity detected in urine over 48 hr after treatment accounted for 55% of the dose. The major urinary metabolites were identified by HPLC and isotope dilution analysis, as methoxyacetic acid (MAA) and methoxyacetylglycine (accounting for 50 to 60% and 18 to 25%, respectively, of urinary radioactivity). Analysis of plasma revealed a rapid conversion of ME to MAA (t1/2 for disappearance of ME = 0.6 +/- 0.03 hr) and gradual clearance of radioactivity (t1/2 = 19.7 +/- 2.3 hr). Pretreatment of animals with pyrazole (400 mg/kg, ip) 1 hr prior to [(14)C]ME dosing gave complete protection against the testicular toxicity of ME. Radioactivity detected in the urine from the pyrazole-pretreated groups over 48 hr (18%) was significantly lower than in the ME-only group. The major radioactive peak co-chromatographed with ME (30 to 36% of the total urinary radioactivity). MAA and methoxyacetylglycine were not major metabolites. Analysis of plasma revealed almost complete inhibition of the conversion of ME to MAA (t1/2 for disappearance of ME = 42.6 +/- 5.6 hr, clearance of radioactivity t1/2 = 51.0 +/- 7.8 hr). The results demonstrate that metabolic activation is required for 2-methoxyethanol to exert toxicity to the male reproductive system.
The secondary metabolite of dimethoxyethyl phthalate (DMEP) methoxyacetic acid (MAA), but not the diester or its primary metabolites monomethoxyethyl phthalate and methoxyethyanol (ME) interfered with normal growth and development of organogenesis phase rat embryos in culture. These in vivo observations suggested that the teratogenicity of DMEP in vivo was due to enzymic cleavage of the diester to ME, followed by oxidation of the latter to MAA in the maternal compartment. /Metabolites of dimethoxyethyl phthalate/
When human volunteers inhaled 5 ppm EGME for 4 hours, 76% of the inspired /ethylene glycol monomethyl ether/ (EGME) was retained and 85% of the absorbed dose appeared in the urine as 2-methoxyacetic acid. The human elimination half-time for the 2-methoxyacetic acid arising from the catabolism of EGME was 66 to 89 hours.
IDENTIFICATION AND USE: 2-Methoxyethanol (2-ME) is a colorless liquid with ether-like odor. It is used as a solvent for cellulose acetate, natural and synthetic resins, some alcohol-soluble dyes; in nail polishes, quick-drying varnishes and enamels, and wood stains. It is also used as a as a jet fuel de-icer. HUMAN EXPOSURE AND TOXICITY: The substance is mildly irritating to the eyes and respiratory tract and may cause effects on the central nervous system, blood, bone marrow, kidneys and liver. Exposure at high levels could cause unconsciousness. The liquid defats the skin. Two non-fatal cases of poisoning by consuming 100 mL 2-ME in men aged 41 and 23 were reported. In addition to agitation and confusion, the predominant clinical features were nausea, cyanosis, hyperventilation, slight tachycardia, and metabolic acidosis. In one patient there were suggestions of moderate kidney failure. No evidence of liver damage was found and both patients recovered within 4 weeks. Chronic poisonings from vapors lead to toxic encephalopathy and evidence of bone marrow depression without hemolysis. Lung, kidney and liver changes have been observed. It was found that individuals exposed in utero to 2-ME showed characteristic dysmorphic features, unexplained mental retardation, and persistent cytogenetic damage. Exposure to 2-ME in utero could result in terminal chromosome rearrangements and shortening of telomere length. Epidemiological studies of workers exposed to 2-ME and 2-ethoxyethanol have shown some evidence of adverse effect on the male reproductive system, with an increased frequency of reduced sperm counts. ANIMAL TOXICITY STUDIES: In guinea pigs, 5 daily sc injections of either 0.5 or 1.0 mL/kg caused prostration, labored breathing, and death. Clinical exam and autopsy of the animals acutely treated with 2-ME revealed anuria, calcified casts in urine, irritation of bladder mucosa, hemorrhage in GI tract, lung edema, and liver and testicular injury. In mice, oral administration of 2-ME for 1-2 wks, or its metabolite methoxyacetic acid for 2 wks, produced thymic atrophy, and a selective depletion of immature thymocytes. The fertility of male rats treated with 200 mg/kg 2-ME declined at week 4 and remained low for the rest of the study. One study reported a partial loss of motor function in the hindlimbs of rats after exposure to 2-ME. This hindlimb paralysis coincided with the glial cell toxicity noted during the second week of exposure. Fetotoxicity in mice and rats and malformations in rabbits were observed following exposure by inhalation to 2-ME. Behavioral and neurochemical alterations were seen in the offspring of rats exposed to 78 mg 2-ME/cu m. The research also found a dose-dependent increase in incidence of fetuses with cardiovascular malformations and abnormal electrocardiograms (EKG) from mothers treated with 2-ME by gavage. The most prevalent EKG abnormality was a prolonged QRS wave. The role of 2-ME cytotoxicity in digital maldevelopment in CD-1 mouse embryos was examined following dosage on gestation day 11. The area of preaxial physiological cell necrosis was enlarged by 2-ME, and the shape of the limb buds was altered 24 hr after treatment. Preaxial tissue and the predigital chondrocyte condensations were reduced or missing following 250 and 350 mg 2-ME/ kg. There were reports of positive mutagenicity results at very high 2-ME concentrations in CHO cells when investigated for chromosome aberration (at 6830 ug/mL or more) and sister chromatid exchange (3170 ug/mL or more). However, in vivo studies for chromosome aberrations and micronuclei were negative. ECOTOXICITY STUDIES: Growth inhibition of green algae by 2-ME was noted at 104 mg/L and of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae) at 100 mg/L.

The material /2-methoxyethanol/ was detected in rat urine 30 min after an ip administration of 1.0 mg/kg and remained present for a total of 7 hr after the injection, 3 hr after it was last seen in the blood.
Male Fischer 344 rats were given a single oral dose of approx 1 or 8.7 mmol/kg of (14)C-ethylene glycol monomethyl ether. Approx 50 to 60% of the admin (14)C was excreted in urine, and about 12% was eliminated as (14)CO2 within 48 hr.
The uptake of /ethylene glycol monomethyl ether/ (EGME) and the urinary excretion of its major metabolite /methoxyacetic acid/ (MAA) was studied in seven male volunteers during experimental exposure to EGME at rest. The exposure concentration was set at 16 mg/cu m, the present Threshold Limit Value. A high retention (0.76) remained unchanged during the 4-hr exposure period. In combination with a constant pulmonary ventilation and a fixed exposure concentration this resulted in an uptake rate that showed no significant variation in time. The total amount of EGME inhaled corresponded to a dose of only 0.25 mg/kg. During and up to 120 hr after the start of the exposure, MAA was detected in the urine. The elimination half-life was on average 77.1 hr. The total amount of MAA excreted was calculated by extrapolation and averaged 85.5% of the inhaled EGME. ...
...The current study evaluated the metabolism of (14)C-labeled 2ME and the distribution of methoxyacetic acid (MA) in maternal and fetal tissues of pregnant Sprague-Dawley rats either exposed to RF radiation at 10 mHz or sham conditions. Additionally, adduct formation for both plasma and fetal protein was tested as a possible biomarker for the observed 2ME/RF teratogenicity. Rats were administered (ethanol-1,2-(14)C)-2ME (150 mg/kg, 161 uCi/rat average) by gavage on day 13 of gestation immediately before RF radiation body temperature elevation to 42 °C/30 min. Concurrent sham and RF rats were sacrificed at 3, 6, 24 or 48 hr for harvest of maternal blood, urine, fetuses and embryonic fluid. Tissues were either digested for determination of radioactivity or deproteinized with /Trichloroacetic Acid/ (TCA) and analyzed by HPLC for quantification of 2ME metabolites. Results show the presence of 2ME and seven metabolites, with the major metabolite, MA, peaking at 6 hr in the tissues tested. MA, the proximal teratogen, was detectable in maternal serum, urine, fetus and embryonic fluid 48 hr after dosing. Clearance of total body (14)C was significantly reduced for the RF animals (p>0.05) for the 24-48 hr period, but MA values for serum, fetus and embryonic fluid were similar for both sham and RF rats. Additionally, no difference was noted for 2ME metabolite profiles in urine or tissue for sham or RF rats thus eliminating an effect of RF radiation on MA production as a possible explanation for the reported RF/2ME synergism. Subsequently, serum and fetus protein-bound adducts were evaluated by analysis of covalently bound radioactivity. Serum protein binding was significantly higher for sham than RF rats at 3- and 6-hr -- highest for sham rats at 6 hr (519 +/- 95 ug as parent 2ME/g of protein) whereas RF serum values were highest at 24 hr (266 +/- 79 ug/g protein). Fetal protein binding was significantly higher for sham rats at 6 hr, but binding was highest for both groups at 24 hr (sham = 229 +/- 71 ug/g, RF = 185 +/- 48 ug/g). Formation of protein adducts after 2ME is thought to be related to levels of methoxyacetaldehyde, a reactive intermediate in the formation of MA.
Synthesis of sulfonic acid functionalized carbon catalyst from glycerol pitch and its application for tetrahydropyranyl protection/deprotection of alcohols and phenols
摘要:
A novel carbon catalyst with -SO3H, -OH and -COOH functional groups was prepared from glycerol pitch by in situ partial carbonization and sulfonation with sulfuric acid. The activity of the catalyst was investigated through tetrahydropyranylation and dehydropyranylation of a wide variety of alcohols and phenols at room temperature by changing the solvent medium from dichloromethane to methanol. Excellent yields, short reaction times, easy and quick isolation of the products and reusability of the catalyst are the main attractions of this method. The novel carbon catalyst holds great potential in the green chemical processes. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
