2-(5-METHYL-2-PHENYLOXAZOL-4-YL)ETHANOL - Introduction

2-(5-methyl -2-phenyl -1, 3-oxazol-4-yl)-1-ethanol is an organic compound, also known as MTBE. Here are some of its properties, uses, formulation and safety information:

Nature:
-Appearance: colorless liquid
-Molecular formula: C11H13NO2
-Molecular weight: 191.23g/mol
-Melting point:-56°C
-Boiling point: 176°C
-Density: 0.99g/cm³
-Solubility: Soluble in water and inorganic solvents such as ethanol, ether and ketone.

Use:
- MTBE is mainly used as a solvent and additive. It can be used to increase the octane number of gasoline and increase the anti-knock performance of the fuel, thereby improving the efficiency of the engine. It can also be used as an additive for fuels and lubricating oils, and as an intermediate for the synthesis of polycarbonate and cellulosic materials.

Preparation Method:
- MTBE can be prepared by reacting tetramethylaniline with 2-bromopropanol. During the reaction, tetramethylaniline reacts with 2-bromopropanol to form the corresponding substituted oxazole and the final product MTBE under alkaline conditions.
