Properties and stability
1. Avoid contact with strong acids, strong oxidants, strong reducing agents, acid chlorides, and acid anhydrides. Flammable liquids. Easily absorbs moisture and is non-corrosive to metals. Similar to ethylene glycol, it is stable to alkali and does not decompose when boiled with sodium hydroxide. In the presence of acid, it is easy to undergo a condensation reaction with aldehydes to generate 1,3-dioxane derivatives.
2. Exist in burley tobacco leaves and smoke.
Storage method
Stored in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. They should be stored separately from oxidants, reducing agents, acids, and food chemicals, and avoid mixed storage. 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
Diacetone alcohol is obtained by condensation of acetone, and then obtained by liquid phase hydrogenation.
The purification method is to dissolve 2-methyl-2,4-pentanediol with 1% sodium hydroxide, heat it at 140℃ for 1 hour, and then perform vacuum distillation below 140℃.
Purpose
Used in organic synthesis. Used as pesticide stabilizer, diesel engine oil antifreeze, etc. 2-Methyl-2,4-pentanediol has permeability and good dispersing ability for inorganic substances. In addition to being used as a solvent, it is also used in dry cleaning agents, automobile brake fluids, printing inks, pigment dispersants, wood preservatives, etc. Used as solvents, spices, medical disinfectants, penetrating agents for fabrics, papermaking and leather processing aids.
