2-Butyloxirane

Description:

2-Butyloxirane, also known as butylene oxide, is a cyclic ether characterized by its three-membered ring structure containing an oxygen atom and two carbon atoms derived from butane. This compound is colorless and has a distinctive odor, typical of many ethers. It is a highly reactive molecule, primarily due to the strain in its epoxide ring, which makes it susceptible to nucleophilic attack. 2-Butyloxirane is soluble in organic solvents and has limited solubility in water. It is primarily used in the synthesis of various chemicals, including surfactants, and as an intermediate in the production of polymers and other industrial chemicals. Due to its reactivity, it can participate in ring-opening reactions, leading to the formation of alcohols or other functional groups when reacted with nucleophiles. Safety considerations are important when handling this compound, as it can be hazardous, with potential health effects if inhaled or absorbed through the skin. Proper precautions should be taken to minimize exposure.
