It is similar to nitroglycerin in both manufacture and properties, though it is more volatile and less viscous. ==History and production== Pure EGDN was first produced by L. Henry in 1870 by dropping a small amount of ethylene glycol into a mixture of nitric and sulfuric acids cooled to 0 °C. The previous year, August Kekulé had produced pure EGDN by the nitration of ethylene, but this was actually contaminated with beta-nitroethyl nitrate.〔〔 Other investigators preparing NGc before publication in 1926 of Rinkenbach's work included: Champion (1871), Neff (1899) & Wieland & Sakellarios (1920), Dautriche, Hough & Oehme. Rinkenbach prepared EGDN by nitrating purified glycol obtained by fractioning the commercial product under pressure of 40mm Hg, and at temp 120 deg. For this 20g of middle fraction of purified glycol was gradually added to mixture of 70g nitric acid and 130g sulfuric acid, maintaining the temp at 23 deg.The resulting 49g of crude product was washed with 300ml of water to obtain 39.6g of purified product. The low yield so obtained could be improved by maintaining a lower temperature and using a different nitrating acid mixture. 1) ''Direct Nitration of Glycol'' is carried out in exactly the same manner, with the same apparatus, and with the same mixed acids as nitration of glycerine. In the test nitration of anhydrous glycol (100g) with 625g of mixed acid 40 & 60% at 10-12 deg, the yield was 222g and it dropped to 218g when the temp was raised to 29-30 deg. When 500g of mixed acid 50 & 50% was used at 10-12 deg, the yield increased to 229g. In commercial nitration, the yields obtained from 100 kg anhydrous glycol and 625 kg of mixed acid containing 41, 58 & water 1% were 222.2 kg of NGc at nitrating temp of 10-12 deg and only 218.3 kg at 29-30 deg. This means 90.6% of theory, as compared to 93.6% with NG. :C2H4(OH)2 + 2 HNO3 → C2H4(ONO2)2 + 2 H2O or through the reaction of ethylene oxide and dinitrogen pentoxide: :C2H4O + N2O5 → C2H4(ONO2)2 2) ''Direct Production of NGc from Gaseous Ethylene''. 3) ''Preparation of NGc from Ethylene Oxide''. 4) ''Preparation of NGc by method of Messing'' from ethylene through chlorohydrin & ethylene oxide. 5) ''Preparation of NGc by duPont method''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ethylene glycol dinitrate」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
