Description:
2-Ethoxypentane is an organic compound classified as an ether, characterized by the presence of an ethoxy group (-O-CH2CH3) attached to a pentane backbone. Its molecular formula is C7H16O, indicating it consists of seven carbon atoms, sixteen hydrogen atoms, and one oxygen atom. This compound is typically a colorless liquid at room temperature, exhibiting a mild, pleasant odor. 2-Ethoxypentane is known for its relatively low boiling point compared to other ethers, making it useful as a solvent in various chemical reactions and processes. It is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water due to its hydrophobic hydrocarbon chain. The compound is stable under normal conditions but should be handled with care, as it may be flammable and can pose health risks if inhaled or ingested. Its applications extend to the synthesis of other organic compounds and as a reagent in laboratory settings. Proper safety measures should be observed when working with this substance to mitigate any potential hazards.
