Description

General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. This product is a biorenewable and thus aligns with "Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries" and "Use of Renewable Feedstocks". Click here for more information.
2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (2-MTHF), a 2-methyl substituted tetrahydrofuran, is a biomass derived solvent. It is a potential greener solvent alternative for organic synthesis. It shows resistance to reduction by lithium making it a promising candidate as electrolytes in lithium batteries. Its polarity and Lewis base strength is intermediate between tetrahydrofuran (THF) and diethyl ether. The ring opening reaction of 2-MTHF has been studied using acid chloride and iodide.

Application

2-Methyltetrahydrofuran may be used as a solvent for phosphatidylserine synthesis.
It may be used as an alternative solvent to:

• Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) or methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) in the C-C bond forming reactions catalyzed by lyase enzyme.
• Tetrahydrofuran (THF) in the reaction between Grignard reagents and carbonyl compounds.
• Methylene chloride in some biphasic reactions.
