	Dibutyl Ether Dibutyl ether is a chemical compound belonging to the ether family with the molecular formula of . It is colorless, volatile, and flammable liquid and has peculiar ethereal smell. Liquid dibutyl ether is lighter than water. On the other hand, the vapor is heavier than air. It is not soluble in water, but it is soluble in acetone and many other organic solvents. Due to this property, dibutyl ether is used as solvent in various chemical reactions and processes. For example, phenyllithium is commercially available as a ca. 1.8M solution in dibutyl ether. Because of the formation of peroxides, it should be protected from heat, light and air. Synthesis Dibutyl ether is obtained from dehydration of 1-butanol with sulfuric acid as a catalyst and dehydrating agent: :2 → + Industrially, dibutyl ether can be obtained by dehydration of 1-butanol on alumina at 300 °C. Reactions This compound is generally stable to oxidation, reduction, and base. Strong acids like HI and HBr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	2-Ethylhexanol 2-Ethylhexanol (abbreviated 2-EH) is an organic compound with the chemical formula . It is a branched, eight-carbon chiral alcohol. It is a colorless liquid that is poorly soluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. It is produced on a large scale (>2,000,000,000 kg/y) for use in numerous applications such as solvents, flavors, and fragrances and especially as a precursor for production of other chemicals such as emollients and plasticizers. It is encountered in plants, fruits, and wines. The odor has been reported as "heavy, earthy, and slightly floral" for the R enantiomer and "a light, sweet floral fragrance" for the S enantiomer. Properties and applications The branching in 2-ethylhexanol inhibits crystallization. Esters of 2-ethylhexanol are similarly affected, which together with low volatility, is the basis of applications in the production of plasticizers and lubricants, where its presence helps reduce viscosity and lower freezing points. Because 2-ethylhexan ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
	Octanol Octanols are alcohols with the formula C8H17OH. A simple and important member is 1-octanol, with an unbranched chain of carbons. Other commercially important octanols are 2-octanol and 2-ethylhexanol. Some octanols occur naturally in the form of esters in some essential oils. Isomers There are 89 possible isomers of octanol, including: * 1-Octanol * 2-Octanol 2-Ethylhexanol 2-Ethylhexanol (abbreviated 2-EH) is an organic compound with the chemical formula .

	2-Octanol 2-Octanol (octan-2-ol, 2-OH) is an organic compound with the chemical formula . It is a colorless oily liquid that is poorly soluble in water but soluble in most organic solvents. 2-Octanol is classified fatty alcohol. A secondary alcohol, it is chiral. Production 2-Octanol is produced commercially by base-cleavage of ricinoleic acid. The coproduct is a mixture of sebacic acid (). Castor oil, which consists mainly of triglycerides of ricinoleic acid, is the main feedstock. Uses 2-Octanol is mainly used as: * Flavor * low-volatility solvent : Diverses Resins (Paints & Coatings, Adhesives, Inks, etc.), Agrochemicals, Mineral Extraction, etc.... * Defoaming agent : Pulp & Paper, Oil & Gas, Cement, Coatings, Coal, etc. * a frother in mineral flotation * wetting agent It can also be used as a chemical intermediate for production of various other chemicals: * Surfactants (ethoxylates, sulfates, ether sulfates, etc.), * Cosmetic emollients esters (palmitate, adipate, maleate, s ...

picture info	Molecular Formula A chemical formula is a way of presenting information about the chemical proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound or molecule, using chemical element symbols, numbers, and sometimes also other symbols, such as parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas and ''plus'' (+) and ''minus'' (−) signs. These are limited to a single typographic line of symbols, which may include subscripts and superscripts. A chemical formula is not a chemical name since it does not contain any words. Although a chemical formula may imply certain simple chemical structures, it is not the same as a full chemical structural formula. Chemical formulae can fully specify the structure of only the simplest of molecules and chemical substances, and are generally more limited in power than chemical names and structural formulae. The simplest types of chemical formulae are called '' empirical formulae'', which use letters and numbers indicating the numerical ''proportions'' of atoms of ...
