Sources of common compounds: Diethylene Glycol Monoethyl Ether

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,111-90-0, its application will become more common.

Synthetic Route of 111-90-0, In the chemical reaction process,reaction time,type of solvent,can easily affect the result of the reaction, thereby determining the yield and properties of the reaction product.An updated downstream synthesis route of 111-90-0 as follows.

EXAMPLE 6 11.2 g (0.083 mole) of diethylene glycol monoethyl ether was added dropwise to a mixture consisting of 1.6 g (0.042 mole) of sodium borohydride, 10 ml of xylene and 5 g (0.027 mole) of methyl caprate at 90 C. over two hours while agitating the mixture. Subsequently, the mixture was agitated at the same temperature for 2.5 hours. After cooling to room temperature, the mixture was neutralized with dilute sulfuric acid. As a result, n-decanol was obtained in 97% yield.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,111-90-0, its application will become more common.
