About Diethylene glycol butyl ether, puriss, 99%+

Listed under CAS 112-34-5, Diethylene glycol butyl ether is an alcohol building block available from Vaqora Chemicals (Puriss grade) with a typical assay of ≥99%. Its molecular formula is C8H18O3 and its molecular weight is 162.23 g/mol. Its systematic (IUPAC) name is 2-(2-butoxyethoxy)ethanol. Alternative names: Butyldiglycol and Butyl carbitol.

The material typically appears as a colourless liquid. Literature values give a melting point of -68 °C and a density of 0.967 g/mL at 25 °C. Store in a cool, well-ventilated place, away from sources of ignition, with the container tightly sealed. The GHS classification uses the signal word “Warning”, so appropriate gloves, eye protection and ventilation are recommended.

It is commonly used for organic synthesis and API synthesis. Our customers for this product work in pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

Standard pack sizes are 1 L and 200 kg, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
