General description

Dipentyl ether (1,1-Dipentyl ether, DPeE) is an aliphatic diether. It is formed as one of the major product during the dehydration of pentan-1-ol.[1]

Application

Dipentyl ether has been used to compose the binary mixtures with various imidazole derivatives. Solid-liquid equilibrium (SLE) of these binary mixtures have been evaluated by a dynamic method.[2]
