Isobutyl ether

Description:
Isobutyl ether, also known as isobutyl alcohol ether or isobutyl methyl ether, is an organic compound characterized by its ether functional group. It has a molecular formula of C4H10O and is typically a colorless, flammable liquid with a mild, pleasant odor. Isobutyl ether is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits low solubility in water. It is primarily used as a solvent in various industrial applications, including paints, coatings, and adhesives, due to its ability to dissolve a wide range of substances. The compound has a relatively low boiling point, which makes it useful in processes requiring evaporation. Isobutyl ether is also known for its relatively low toxicity compared to other solvents, although proper handling and safety measures are still essential to minimize exposure risks. Its chemical stability and reactivity are typical of ethers, making it a versatile compound in organic synthesis and formulation chemistry.
