AC-44576 - 2-ethoxyethanol-for-analysis | 110-80-5

<p>2,2,2-Trichloro-1-ethoxyethanol is an effective dose for primary analysis of reaction vessels. It has been shown to attenuate the acute toxicities of hydrogen chloride and chlorine. In addition, it has been shown to be damaging to cells in culture at doses above 10%. This chemical binds with uronic acids and oxidizes them to produce aldehydes that are toxic to cells. 2,2,2-Trichloro-1-ethoxyethanol also reacts with nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and blocks the passage of nerve impulses by binding with the receptor and preventing it from opening. Trifluoromethyl group can react with hydrochloric acid or aromatic hydrocarbons to form trifluoromethyl chloride or trifluoroacetic acid.</p>
