Cumene hydroperoxide

Description:
Cumene hydroperoxide, with the CAS number 80-15-9, is an organic peroxide that serves as a key intermediate in the production of phenol and acetone through the cumene process. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is slightly soluble in water but more soluble in organic solvents. This compound is characterized by its strong oxidizing properties, which can lead to hazardous reactions if not handled properly. Cumene hydroperoxide is sensitive to heat and shock, making it potentially explosive under certain conditions. It can decompose to form various byproducts, including cumene and other reactive species, especially when exposed to light or elevated temperatures. In terms of safety, it is classified as a hazardous material, requiring appropriate precautions during storage and handling to prevent accidental decomposition. Overall, cumene hydroperoxide plays a significant role in industrial chemistry, particularly in the synthesis of important chemical products.
