60-29-7 - Nature
Open Data Verified Data
colorless transparent tertiary volatile liquid. With ethanol, benzene, chloroform, petroleum ether and other arbitrary miscibility. Slightly soluble in water. See light or long-standing air, gradually oxidized to peroxide. Generally, 0.1% of 2,6-= tert-butyl-p-cresol is added as a stabilizer. Its vapor and air to form an explosive mixture, in the case of open flame, high heat, easy to burn explosion. A strong reaction with an oxidizing agent can occur. Exposure to air or under light conditions can generate peroxides with a potential risk of explosion.

Open Data Verified Data
sodium bisulfite solution was added to the industrial diethyl ether and washed with a saturated sodium chloride solution containing 5% sodium hydroxide. It is then washed with a saturated sodium chloride solution containing a small amount of sulfuric acid and then with a saturated sodium chloride solution. Finally, the distillation can be carried out under the protection of ammonia gas.

| purification and water removal method | common ether usually contains 2% ethanol and 0.5% water. Long-standing ether often contains a small amount of peroxide peroxide inspection and removal: in the clean and test tube put 2~3 drops of concentrated sulfuric acid, 1ml 2% potassium iodide solution (if potassium iodide solution has been air oxidation, dilute sodium sulfite solution drop to yellow disappear) and 1~2 drops of starch solution, mixed evenly after adding ether, blue indicates the presence of peroxides. In addition to the oxide can be used to newly prepared ferrous sulfate dilute solution (preparation method is FeSO4? H2O 60g,100ml of water and 6mL of concentrated sulfuric acid). 100ml of diethyl ether and 10ml of a freshly prepared ferrous sulfate solution were washed several times in a separatory funnel until no peroxide was present. Alcohol and water inspection and removal: diethyl ether into a small amount of potassium permanganate powder and sodium hydroxide. After placement, the surface of the sodium hydroxide was attached with a brown resin, which demonstrated the presence of alcohol. The presence of water was checked with anhydrous copper sulfate. Most of the water was removed with anhydrous calcium chloride and then dried over sodium metal. The method is: 100ml of diethyl ether in a dry Erlenmeyer flask, add 20-25g anhydrous calcium chloride, the bottle is closed with a cork, placed for more than one day, and intermittent shaking, and then distilled, Fractions from 33 to 37 °c were collected. 1g of metallic sodium was directly pressed into sodium wire by a sodium pressurizer and placed in a bottle containing ether, and stoppers were used with a cork with a calcium chloride drying tube. Alternatively, a glass tube in which a capillary tube is drawn at the end is inserted into the cork, so that both the immersion of moisture and the escape of the generated gas can be prevented. It can be used without bubbles; After placement, if the surface of the sodium wire has turned yellow and coarse, it must be distilled once again, and then pressed into the sodium wire. |
| identification test | solubility insoluble in water, miscible in ethanol and chloroform. According to the OT-42 method. The relative density of d420 was 0.714~0.716. According to the conventional method of measurement. |
| toxicity | ADI value is not specified (FAO/WHO,2001). |
| purpose | in organic synthesis is mainly used as solvent extractant and reaction medium commonly used as analytical reagents, solvent and extractant, also used in organic synthesis extraction solvent. According to the provisions of GB 2760-90, used as food processing aids. ether is mainly used as a solvent in organic synthesis. Ether is very soluble in water, so it can be used to extract organic matter dissolved in water. Ether can also dissolve bromine, iodine, phosphorus, sulfur, chromium oxide, iron oxide, stannous chloride and mercury chloride and other inorganic substances. Ether itself does not dissolve nitrocellulose, but the mixture of ether and ethanol is a good solvent for nitrocellulose, which is used in the production of smokeless propellant, cotton gum and photographic film. Ether is often used as the extractant or reaction medium for natural products. However, the volatility of ether is large, and it is narcotic, and its use as a solvent is limited. Ether was the first successful surgical anesthetic to be tested. Its advantage is the role of strong, safe, heart and liver and liver toxicity, muscle relaxation is more complete, do not need to add muscle relaxation drugs. The disadvantage is the stimulation of the mucosa, anesthesia induction period is longer, there is the risk of combustion and explosion, and the recovery of adverse reactions more, tend to use less or not. used as analytical reagent, chromatographic reagent and solvent mainly used as solvent, anesthetic and chemical reagent |
| production method | 1. Ethanol-sulfuric acid method ethanol with concentrated sulfuric acid as dehydrating agent, reaction at 130-135 deg C, the formation of ether (speculated that the reaction mechanism is Mr. into ethyl sulfate, and then with ethanol to generate ether), and then neutralized, fractionation, to obtain the finished product. The main industrial source of ether is the by-product of hydration of ethylene to ethanol. When the solid phosphoric acid catalyst is used to catalyze the hydration of ethylene to ethanol, about 2-3% of the yield of ether is formed, while in the sulfuric acid hydration method, the yield of ether can reach 8-10%. The reaction conditions may be adjusted as needed, and the ratio of ethanol to ether may be varied or used exclusively for the production of ether. Raw material consumption quota: ethanol (95%)1400kg/t, sulfuric acid (98%)45kg/t. obtained by fractionation after dehydration of ethanol or ethylene under sulfuric acid. |
