Properties and stability

Avoid exposure to air. Avoid contact with strong oxidants and humid air. It is easily oxidized in the air and can easily cause combustion when exposed to open flames or high heat.

The toxicity is similar to that of 2-methylfuran, see 2-methylfuran for details.

Storage method

1. Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 30?. The packaging must be sealed and must not come into contact with air. They should be stored separately from oxidants, etc. and avoid mixed storage. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. It is prohibited to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with emergency spill treatment equipment and suitable containment materials.

2. Packed in iron drums. Store in a cool, ventilated, dry warehouse. Fireworks are strictly prohibited. Handle it with care when transporting, and do not turn it upside down to avoid collision. Store and transport according to regulations for flammable and toxic substances. Packed in iron drum, net weight 170kg/drum.

Synthesis method

Originated by catalytic hydrogenation of 2-methylfuran. When the catalytic hydrogenation reaction uses a palladium chloride catalyst, the main product is acetyl propyl alcohol (see 00420), but the by-product 2-methyltetrahydrofuran can also be recovered.

Purpose

It is used as a solvent for resins, natural rubber, ethyl cellulose and chloroacetic acid-vinyl acetate copolymer; it is also a raw material in the pharmaceutical industry and can be used in the synthesis of anti-hemorrhoidal drugs such as primaquine phosphate.
