Properties and stability
It does not decompose under normal temperature and pressure. Avoid contact with strong oxidants.
Storage method
Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. Protect from direct sunlight. Keep container tightly sealed. should be kept away from oxidizer, do not store together. Equipped with the appropriate variety and quantity of fire equipment. The storage area should be equipped with emergency release equipment and suitable containment materials.
Synthesis method
1. Refining method: After washing with 10% sodium bisulfite, 10% sodium hydroxide, and saturated sodium chloride solution, dry with calcium chloride, metallic sodium, etc., and distill.
2. Preparation method:
Refer to the above preparation method of n-amyl ether (reference book page 242), use 68g of 1-hexanol (2) (83mL, 0.67mol, bp156~157℃), 4.5mL of concentrated sulfuric acid, and a few grains of zeolite , the temperature rises to 180°C. After the reaction is completed, cool and pour into water. Separate the organic layer, wash twice with 5% sodium hydroxide solution and once with water, dry with anhydrous potassium carbonate, and distill. Collect the fractions of 160 to 221°C (23g) and 221 to 223°C (23g). After treatment with 5g of metallic sodium and distillation, 26g of diisoamyl ether (1) was obtained with a yield of 43%. [1]
Purpose
Used as reaction medium and defoaming agent. Used as solvent and defoaming agent in chemical reactions. Used in collodion, extractants, photographic film and smokeless gunpowder, etc.
