Abstract:
A novel ring-opening Wittig olefination approach was developed for the synthesis of amphiphilic phosphine oxides (PO) as non-ionic surfactants. The approach concurrently introduces the crucial functional groups (lipophilic chain and phosphine oxide moiety) present in the known PO surfactants and additional hydrophilic group (i.e., ethylene glycol units) in one step via Wittig olefination of a macrocyclic phosphoranylidene. A series of novel PO compounds were obtained from a variety of aldehydes and selected compounds were examined for their physiochemical properties (surface tension, critical micelle concentration and interfacial tension) and also for their abilities to form emulsions as non-ionic surfactants.
