Description:Propyl ether, also known as propyl alcohol ether or propyl ethyl ether, is an organic compound characterized by its ether functional group, which consists of an oxygen atom bonded to two alkyl or aryl groups. With the CAS number 111-43-3, it typically appears as a colorless, flammable liquid with a distinctive odor. Propyl ether is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits low solubility in water. Its boiling point is relatively low, making it volatile, and it has a moderate density compared to water. This compound is primarily used as a solvent in various chemical reactions and processes, as well as in the production of other chemicals. Due to its flammability, it requires careful handling and storage to prevent fire hazards. Additionally, propyl ether can pose health risks if inhaled or ingested, necessitating the use of appropriate safety measures during its use in laboratory or industrial settings.
