Descripción

General description

We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. Cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) is a greener alternative solvent to many aprotic ether solvents such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF), dioxane (carcinogenic), tert-Butyl methyl ether (MTBE), and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) and thus has been enhanced for "Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries".  Click here  for more information.

Application

CPME is a greener alternative solvent and may be used is a broad range of applications such as:

Organic synthesis reactions containing the following reagents and conditions:

1. Alkali agents
2. Lewis’s acid-mediated reactions
3. Organometallic
4. Reduction and Oxidation
5. Transition metal catalysts
6. Azeotropic water removal

Extraction of compounds
Polymer synthesis
Crystallization
Surface coatings

Features and Benefits

• Synthetic-based sustainable and safer alternative
• Reduces the number of steps required for production
• Reduces the amount of water that is required for washing
• Eliminates the need for co-solvents for product recovery
  
  It has many properties which make it a safer and greener alternative:

• Low peroxide formation
• High boiling point
• Clean organic-water phase separation
• Reduced energy to recover
