2-phenyl-tetrahydrofuran

Description:
2-Phenyl-tetrahydrofuran is an organic compound characterized by its tetrahydrofuran ring structure, which is a five-membered cyclic ether, and a phenyl group attached to the second carbon of the ring. This compound typically exhibits a colorless to pale yellow liquid form with a distinctive aromatic odor. It is relatively non-polar, making it soluble in organic solvents while having limited solubility in water. The presence of the phenyl group contributes to its stability and influences its reactivity, particularly in electrophilic aromatic substitution reactions. 2-Phenyl-tetrahydrofuran can be used as a solvent or as an intermediate in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals. Its boiling point and melting point are consistent with similar cyclic ethers, and it is generally considered to have low toxicity, although safety precautions should still be observed when handling it. As with many organic compounds, it is important to consider its environmental impact and proper disposal methods.
