What is Isopropyl alcohol?
Description
Isopropanol is a clear, colorless alcohol that is used in the production of acetone and as a solvent in the manufacture of various industrial and commercial products. It is used by the public for a number of different purposes and is commonly known as rubbing alcohol. It is flammable and miscible with both water and many different organic solvents. Isopropanol can be prepared via three different methods: indirect hydration of propylene (the ‘strong acid’ method), direct hydration of propylene, and catalytic hydrogenation of acetone.
Description
Isopropanol is used occasionally in organic chemistry as a solvent. A common use would be in reactions that require a higher boiling protic solvent. Isopropanol is also commonly used as the solvent of choice for the cold finger of a rotovap.
The Uses of Isopropyl alcohol
To a solution of A (400 mg, 1.54 mmol), B (621 mg, 3.09 mmol), and PPh3 (610 mg, 2.32 mmol) in THF (5.5 mL) at RT was added DEAD (404 mg, 2.32 mmol) in THF (0.5 mL). After 90 min, silica gel was added and the mixture was concentrated and purified on a flash column (25% EtOAc/hexane) to provide the product. [545 mg, 80%]
The Uses of Isopropyl alcohol
Isopropyl alcohol is used in the production of acetone, isopropyl halides, glycerin, and aluminum isopropoxide; employed widely as an industrial solvent for paints, polishes, and insecticides; as an antiseptic (rubbing alcohol); and in organic synthesis for introducing the isopropyl or isopropoxy group into the molecule. Being a common laboratory solvent like methanol, the exposure risks are always high; however, its toxicity is comparatively low.
