Introduction
n-Propyl Ether (Dipropyl Ether)
Chemical Formula: C₆H₁₄O
Structure: Ether with two straight-chain (n-) propyl groups (C₃H₇) bonded to an oxygen atom.
Physical Properties:
- Clear, colorless liquid with a characteristic ether-like odor.
- Boiling Point: ~90°C.
- Polarity: Moderate.
Key Applications
- Solvent in Organic Synthesis:
- Used in reactions requiring moderate polarity (e.g., extractions, reagent preparations).
- Industrial Processes:
- Formulation of coatings, adhesives, and fuel mixtures.
- Chemical Reagents:
- Aids in preparing specific reagents (e.g., Grignard reaction auxiliaries).
Safety Considerations ⚠️
- High Flammability: Keep away from heat, sparks, and open flames.
- Peroxide Formation: Forms explosive peroxides upon prolonged air exposure; test periodically and avoid long-term storage.
- Handling:
- Use in well-ventilated areas.
- Store in airtight containers under inert gas (e.g., nitrogen).
Summary:
n-Propyl ether’s moderate polarity and solvent versatility make it valuable in synthesis and industrial applications. However, its flammability and peroxide risks necessitate strict adherence to safety protocols.
