Usage

General Description

Pentylcarbamic acid ethyl ester, also known as ethyl pentylcarbamate, is a chemical compound that belongs to the carbamate family. It is commonly used as a pesticide and insect repellent due to its ability to inhibit the activity of acetylcholinesterase, an enzyme that is crucial for the functioning of the nervous system in insects. Pentylcarbamic acid ethyl ester is also utilized in the production of pharmaceuticals as a reagent in the synthesis of various drugs. However, it is important to handle pentylcarbamic acid ethyl ester with caution, as it is toxic to humans and can cause skin and eye irritation, as well as respiratory and gastrointestinal issues if inhaled or ingested. Additionally, it may have harmful effects on aquatic organisms and the environment if not properly managed.

Chemical Ionization Mass Spectra of Urethanes

Chemical ionization mass spectra using methane as the reagent gas are reported for 33 urethanes of general structure RNHCO2C2H5 nH2n+1 (n=1-8), CH2CH=CH2, cyclo-C6H11, Ph, PhCH2, PhCH2CH2, and Ph(CH3)CH> and R2NCO2C2H5 nH2n+1 (n=1-4)>.Abundant MH+ ions are present in all the spectra, accompanied by satellite peaks corresponding to + and +.Four classes of fragment ions are of general importance in the spectra.Two of these, + and +, are associated with the CO2C2H5 group.The other two, corresponding to alkane and alkene elimination from MH+, arise from the RNH or R2N function.The mechanisms whereby these fragment ions are formed are discussed and their analytical utility is illustrated by reference to the spectra of the four isomeric C4H9NHCO2C2H5 and the eight isomeric C5H11NHCO2C2H5 compounds.The results of 2H-labelling studies are presented and a comparison is made between the methane and ammonia chemical ionisation spectra of selected urethanes.
