Description

1,4-Dioxane-2,5-dimethanol is a low molecular weight compound that is insoluble in water. It reacts with glycidol to form ring-opening polymerization products. This compound has been shown to exhibit a variety of spectra, including peaks at ν = 3.69, 4.38, and 5.27 ppm (C-H stretching). The major configuration for 1,4-dioxane-2,5-dimethanol is the cis form due to the fact that it has two cationic rings. This substance can be used as an intermediate in the production of polyethers and polyesters. 1,4-Dioxane-2,5-dimethanol can also be used as a solvent for cellulose acetate or nitrocellulose coatings on paperboard or film base materials; however it may cause contamination by substances such as cationic ring opening products and trifluoride
