CAS 2984-50-1: 2-Hexyloxirane
Description:2-Hexyloxirane, also known as 2-hexyl epoxide, is a cyclic ether characterized by a three-membered ring structure containing an oxygen atom. It is derived from hexanol and is classified as an epoxide, which is known for its reactivity due to the strained ring structure. This compound typically exhibits a colorless to pale yellow liquid form and has a distinctive odor. 2-Hexyloxirane is soluble in organic solvents but has limited solubility in water, which is common for many epoxides. Its reactivity allows it to participate in various chemical reactions, including ring-opening reactions, making it useful in the synthesis of larger molecules and polymers. Additionally, 2-hexyloxirane can serve as an intermediate in the production of surfactants, coatings, and other chemical products. Safety considerations are important when handling this compound, as it may pose health risks through inhalation or skin contact, necessitating appropriate safety measures in laboratory and industrial settings.
