The bleaching activators 1,5‐diacetyl 2,4‐dioxo‐hexahydro‐1,3,5‐triazine (DADHT), tetraacetyl ethylenediamine (TAED), tetraacetyl glycolurile (TAGU), N,N′‐diacetyl N,N′‐dimethyl urea (DDU) and pentaacetyl glucose (PAG) are efficient acetylating agents which convert primary and secondary amines into their N‐acetyl derivatives. The rates of the reactions of the bleaching activators mentioned with piperidine were determined in the temperature range 20 to 90°C using dioxane as the solvent. The kinetic constants can be regarded as rough measures of the activity of the bleaching activators.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
