Abstract: | Fifty-four amines used as antioxidants and/or antiozonants for elastomers were separated on silica gel thin-layer plates with benzene and benzene-ethyl acetate-acetone (100:5:1) as developing solvents and N-chloro-2,6-dichloro-p-benzoquinone monoimine in buffered alkaline medium as spray reagent. Benzene-n-hexane (50:50) was used to separate diheptyl- and dioctyldiphenylamines. The active agents of several imprecisely defined products were identified and the relationships between some mixtures were elucidated. The method highlights the numerous minor components of these very impure industrial compounds. Some theoretical correlations between the chemical structures, the RF values and the colours of the spots were also established. |
