2-methoxyethyl ether usage and synthesis |
chemical properties | colorless clear liquid |
usage | solvent; it is used as reaction medium for grignard and similar synthesis. |
general description | colorless watery liquid with a pleasant odor. floats and mixes with water. |
air & water reactions | oxidizes readily in air to form unstable peroxides that may explode spontaneously [bretherick, 1979 p.151-154, 164]. a mixture of liquid air and diethyl ether exploded spontaneously, [mca case history 616(1960)]. water soluble. |
reactivity profile | a violent explosion occurred when lithium aluminum hydride was being used to dry 2-methoxyethyl ether. the ignition may have occurred due to the presence of large amounts of water or perhaps peroxide formed in the ether. about 75% of the ether had been removed when the explosion occurred, [mca case history 1494 (1968)]. |
health hazard | ingestion (severe cases): nausea, vomiting, abdominal cramps, weakness progressing to coma. |
fire hazard | 2-methoxyethyl ether is combustible. |
