Contact SupplierBasic Organic Chemicals 2-Methyl-1-propanol CAS 78-83-1 Product description: 2-Methyl-1-propanol, also known as isopropyl methanol and 2- methyl propanol, is a colorless flammable liquid with alcohol flavour. 2-Methyl-1-propanol is one of the main components of the aroma of tea fresh leaves, black tea and green tea, with a molecular weight of 74.12. The boiling point is 107.66 degrees centigrade. The relative density is 0.8016 (20/ 4 C). The index of refraction is 1.3959. The flash point is 37 degrees centigrade. It can be mixed with alcohol and ether, and can be dissolved in water. The vapour can form explosive mixture with air, and the explosion limit is 2.4% (volume). An addition compound (CaCl2? 3C4H10O) can be formed with calcium chloride. The by-products of synthetic methanol can be rectified and distilled from crude fusel oil. In industry, carbonyl cobalt is used as catalyst to make the mixture of propylene and carbon monoxide and hydrogen at 110~140 C, 2.0265 x 107 ~ 3.0397 x 107Pa, to produce butyric and isobutyric aldehyde, and then catalyze hydrogenation and separation to obtain isobutanol. It is used in the manufacture of petroleum additives, antioxidants, plasticizers, synthetic rubber, synthetic musk, fruit essential oil and synthetic drugs. It is also used as a solvent and a chemical reagent. Feature:High PurityLow PriceFast deliveyGood service Product details: English Name: 2-Methyl-1-propanolEnglish synonyms: NATURAL ISO BUTYL ALCOHOL;
