sugars. It exists in solid state, only in crystalline dimeric form as 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-dioxane. However, in solution phase or during heating, it dissociates into different dimeric and monomeric forms. FTIR spectroscopy was used to study the effect of temperature, pH and solvent on the dissociation and chemical transformations of glycolaldehyde. The infrared spectra were recorded in different solvents as
摘要乙二醇醛代表最简单的α-羟羰基部分-还原糖的常见结构特征。它以固态存在,仅以2,5-二羟基-1,4-二恶烷的结晶二聚体形式存在。但是,在溶液相或加热过程中,它会分解成不同的二聚体和单体形式。FTIR光谱用于研究温度,pH和溶剂对乙醇醛的离解和化学转化的影响。红外光谱是在30至85°C的时间和温度(加热和冷却循环期间)的函数下记录在不同溶剂中的。在加热期间,乙醇醛环状二聚体在羰基区域产生两个带,一个在1744cm -1,另一个在1728cm -1。这些带在加热周期中增加而在冷却周期中减小。数据表明,乙醇醛环状二聚体(2,5-二羟基-1,4-二恶烷)经历开环形成无环二聚体(1728 cm -1),该无环二聚体可再循环为2-羟基甲基-4-羟基-1 ,3-二氧戊环结构。无环二聚体还可以与烯二醇形式(1703cm -1)平衡解离成单体乙二醛(1744cm -1)。有证据表明,在中性或碱性水溶液中,加热期间乙醇醛会氧化成乙醇酸。
