tert-Butyl hydroperoxide

Description:
Tert-Butyl hydroperoxide (TBHP) is an organic peroxide with the chemical formula C4H10O2 and a CAS number of 75-91-2. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is soluble in organic solvents but only slightly soluble in water. TBHP is known for its strong oxidizing properties, making it useful in various chemical reactions, including as a radical initiator in polymerization processes and as an oxidizing agent in organic synthesis. It is relatively stable under normal conditions but can decompose exothermically, especially when exposed to heat, light, or contaminants. Safety precautions are essential when handling TBHP, as it can be hazardous; it poses risks of skin and eye irritation and can be explosive under certain conditions. Additionally, it is classified as a potential carcinogen, necessitating careful management in laboratory and industrial settings. Overall, tert-Butyl hydroperoxide is a valuable reagent in organic chemistry, but its handling requires strict adherence to safety protocols.
