Description
Hexaethylene glycol is a polymer consisting of ethylene glycol monomers and two terminal hydroxyl groups. The PEG chain increases the water solubility of a compound in aqueous media. Increasing the number of ethylene glycol units within the entire chain improves the solubility properties of the PEG linker.

Uses
Substrate employed in the synthesis of binaphthol-based macrocyclic ethers using intramolecular oxidative coupling with CuCl(OH)-TMEDA.1 Hexaethylene Glycol is part of a leaf extract (Murdannia Bracteata) which exhibits antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-cancer properties. It also shows potential application as functional hydraulic fl
uids. Hexaethylene glycol exhibits antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-cancer properties. It also shows potential application as functional hydraulic fluids. It is used as a surfactant building block as well as used in biological sample preparation. Further, it is employed in the synthesis of binaphthol-based macrocyclic ethers using intramolecular oxidative coupling with CuCl(OH).
