解説
メチルアルコールの別称。A.W.H.コルベはメチルアルコールにカルビノールの名称を与え，他の一価アルコールをその置換体として命名した。たとえばエチルアルコールCH3CH2OHはメチルカルビノールであり，イソプロピルアルコール(CH3)2CHOHはジメチルカルビノールである。このカルビノール命名法はIUPAC1965年規則で廃止された。【中井 武】

説明
Methyl alcohol, also known as methanol or wood alcohol, is a clear, colorless, flammable liquid
that is the simplest alcohol.
World production of methanol is approximately 8.5 billion gallons annually. Methanol
is produced industrially, starting with the production of synthesis gas or syngas. Syngas used
in the production of methyl alcohol is a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen formed
when natural gas reacts with steam or oxygen. Methyl alcohol is then synthesized
from carbon monoxide and hydrogen.
Methyl alcohol is poisonous and is commonly used to denature ethyl alcohol. Methanol
poisoning results from ingestion, inhalation of methanol vapors, or absorption through
the skin. Methanol is transformed in the body to formaldehyde (H2CO) by the enzyme
alcohol dehydrogenase.The formaldehyde is then metabolized to formic acid (HCOOH)by aldehyde dehydrogenase.
化学的特性
Methanol is a clear, water-white liquid with a mild odor at
ambient temperatures.The air odor threshold for methanol has been reported as
100 ppm . Others have reported that 2000 or 5900 ppm
methanol is barely detectable .
物理的性質
Clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic alcoholic odor. Odor threshold concentrations ranged
from 8.5 ppb
v (Nagata and Takeuchi, 1990) to 100.0 ppm
v (Leonardos et al., 1969).
Experimentally determined detection and recognition odor threshold concentrations were 5.5
mg/m
3 (4.2 ppm
v) and 69 mg/m
3 (53 ppm
v), respectively (Hellman and Small, 1974).
来歴
It was first isolated in 1661 by the Irish chemist Robert Boyle
(1627–1691) who prepared it by the destructive distillation of boxwood, giving it the name
spirit of box, and the name wood alcohol is still used for methyl alcohol. Methyl alcohol is also
called pyroxylic spirit; pyroxylic is a general term meaning distilled from wood and indicates
that methyl alcohol is formed during pyrolysis of wood. The common name was derived in the
mid-1800s. The name methyl denotes the single carbon alkane methane in which a hydrogen
atom has been removed to give the methyl radical. The word alcohol is derived from Arabic
al kuhul.
使用
Methylalcohol, CH30H, also known as methanol or wood alcohol, is a colorless, toxic, flammable liquid with a boiling point of 64.6 °C(147 °F). The principal toxic effect is on the nervous system,particularly the retinae. Methyl alcoholis miscible in all proportions with water,ethyl alcohol, and ether. It burns with a light blue flame producing water and carbon dioxide. This vapor forms an explosive mixture(6.0 to 36.5% by volume) with air. Methyl alcohol is an important inexpensive raw material that is synthetically produced for the organic chemical industry. Nearly half of the methyl alcohol manufactured is used in the production of formaldehyde. Other uses of methyl alcohol are as an antifreeze and fuel for automobiles and as an intermediate in the production of synthetic protein.
定義
ChEBI: Methanol is the primary alcohol that is the simplest aliphatic alcohol, comprising a methyl and an alcohol group. It has a role as an amphiprotic solvent, a fuel, a human metabolite, an Escherichia coli metabolite, a mouse metabolite and a Mycoplasma genitalium metabolite. It is an alkyl alcohol, a one-carbon compound, a volatile organic compound and a primary alcohol. It is a conjugate acid of a methoxide.
調製方法
Modern industrial-scale methanol production is exclusively
based on synthesis from pressurized mixtures of hydrogen,
carbon monoxide, and carbon dioxide gases in the presence
of catalysts. Based on production volume, methanol has
become one of the largest commodity chemicals produced
in the world.
反応性
Methyl alcohol is a versatile material, reacting (1) with sodium metal, forming sodium methylate, sodium methoxide CH3ONa plus hydrogen gas, (2) with phosphorus chloride, bromide, iodide, forming methyl chloride, bromide, iodide, respectively, (3) with H2SO4 concentrated, forming dimethyl ether (CH3)2O, (4) with organic acids, warmed in the presence of H2SO4, forming esters, e.g., methyl acetate CH3COOCH3, [CAS: 79-20-9], methyl salicylate C6H4(OH)·COOCH3, possessing characteristic odors, (5) with magnesium methyl iodide in anhydrous ether (Grignard’s solution), forming methane as in the case of primary alcohols, (6) with calcium chloride, forming a solid addition compound 4CH3OH·CaCl2, which is decomposed by H2O, (7) with oxygen, in the presence of heated smooth copper or silver forming formaldehyde. The density of pure methyl alcohol is 0.792 at 20 °C compared with H2O at 4 °C (the corresponding figure for ethyl alcohol is 0.789), and the percentage of methyl alcohol present in a methyl alcohol-water solution may be determined from the density of the sample.
世界保健機関（WHO）
Methanol has been subjected to abuse by consumption as a
substitute for ethanol. Its toxic metabolites cause irreversible blindness and severe
metabolic acidosis, and are ultimately fatal. Methanol continues to be used as an
industrial solvent.
一般的な説明
A colorless fairly volatile liquid with a faintly sweet pungent odor like that of ethyl alcohol. Completely mixes with water. The vapors are slightly heavier than air and may travel some distance to a source of ignition and flash back. Any accumulation of vapors in confined spaces, such as buildings or sewers, may explode if ignited. Used to make chemicals, to remove water from automotive and aviation fuels, as a solvent for paints and plastics, and as an ingredient in a wide variety of products.
反応プロフィール
Methanol reacts violently with acetyl bromide [Merck 11th ed. 1989]. Mixtures with concentrated sulfuric acid and concentrated hydrogen peroxide can cause explosions. Reacts with hypochlorous acid either in water solution or mixed water/carbon tetrachloride solution to give methyl hypochlorite, which decomposes in the cold and may explode on exposure to sunlight or heat. Gives the same product with chlorine. Can react explosively with isocyanates under basic conditions. The presence of an inert solvent mitigates this reaction [Wischmeyer 1969]. A violent exothermic reaction occurred between methyl alcohol and bromine in a mixing cylinder [MCA Case History 1863. 1972]. A flask of anhydrous lead perchlorate dissolved in Methanol exploded when Methanol was disturbed [J. Am. Chem. Soc. 52:2391. 1930]. P4O6 reacts violently with Methanol. (Thorpe, T. E. et al., J. Chem. Soc., 1890, 57, 569-573). Ethanol or Methanol can ignite on contact with a platinum-black catalyst. (Urben 1794).
危険性
Flammable, dangerous fire risk. Explosive
limits in air 6–36.5% by volume. Toxic by ingestion
(causes blindness). Headache, eye damage, dizziness, and nausea.
健康ハザード
The acute toxicity of methanol by ingestion, inhalation, and skin contact is low. Ingestion
of methanol or inhalation of high concentrations can produce headache, drowsiness,
blurred vision, nausea, vomiting, blindness, and death. In humans, 60 to 250 mL is
reported to be a lethal dose. Prolonged or repeated skin contact can cause irritation and
inflammation; methanol can be absorbed through the skin in toxic amounts. Contact of
methanol with the eyes can cause irritation and burns. Methanol is not considered to have
adequate warning properties.
Methanol has not been found to be carcinogenic in humans. Information available is
insufficient to characterize the reproductive hazard presented by methanol. In animal
tests, the compound produced developmental effects only at levels that were maternally
toxic; hence, it is not considered to be a highly significant hazard to the fetus. Tests in
bacterial or mammalian cell cultures demonstrate no mutagenic activity
火災危険
Behavior in Fire: Containers may explode.
燃焼性と爆発性
Methanol is a flammable liquid (NFPA rating = 3) that burns with an invisible flame
in daylight; its vapor can travel a considerable distance to an ignition source and
"flash back." Methanol-water mixtures will burn unless very dilute. Carbon dioxide
or dry chemical extinguishers should be used for methanol fires.
