Reaction with specific scavenger agents, so-called trapping, is a direct way to prove the occurrence of reactive intermediates in a reaction system, and thus to elucidate the underlying reaction mechanisms. After an introduction on chemical intermediates, chemical trapping and the peculiarities of trapping methodology in the presence of cellulose, four chapters from cellulose chemistry were selected...
The Lyocell process is a modern ‘green’ industrial fiber-making technology, which employs N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide monohydrate (NMMO) to directly dissolve cellulose. One problem in Lyocell processing is the discoloration of the spinning dope due to chemical side reactions. Two different methods were elaborated to isolate chromophores, which are present in minute amounts only, from Lyocell fibers,...
The course of the reaction between N-methylmorpholine-N-oxide (NMMO, 1a) and cyanuric chloride (2) is strictly dependent on the hydrate water content of the amine oxide. In solid phase, both substances undergo an explosion-like, extremely exothermic reaction. In solution, this process becomes controllable and leads to a quantitative degradation of NMMO into morpholine and formaldehyde, with 2 only...
