What is ethyl hydroperoxide?
Chemical properties
Ethyl hydroperoxide is the organic compound with the formula CH3CH2OOH. It is a colorless liquid that is miscible with water and diethyl ether.
Preparation
Ethyl hydroperoxide is formed in the flame of burning alkanes. Ethyl hydroperoxide is also formed in the catalytic reaction of ethane and hydrogen peroxide. Yet another way to form ethyl hydroperoxide is by a photocatalytic oxidation of ethane:
CH3CH3 + O2 → CH3CH2OOH
Safety Profile
Explodes violently when superheated. The barium salt is heat and impact-sensitive. Explosive reaction with hydroiodic acid or finely divided silver. When heated to decomposition it emitsacrid smoke and irritating fumes. See also PEROXIDES.
