Preparation of 2-Butoxyethanol: 2-Butoxyethanol is produced by monoethoxylation of butanol. In 2006, the total European production of all butyl glycol ethers amounted to 181 kilotons per annum (kt/a), approximately 50% (90 kt/a) of which was 2-butoxyethanol. World production is estimated to be 200 to 500 kt/a, of which 75% is for paints and coatings.
C2H4O + BuOH → BuOC2H4OH
