About Hexylene glycol, 99%

Hexylene glycol is an alcohol building block in Synthesis grade carrying the CAS registry number 107-41-5 with a typical assay of 99%. The compound has the formula C6H14O2, corresponding to a molecular weight of 118.17 g/mol. Its systematic (IUPAC) name is 2-methylpentane-2,4-diol. Alternative names: Diolane and 1,1,3-Trimethyltrimethylenediol.

It is supplied as a colourless liquid. Key physical data: a melting point of -40 °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.

Key uses span organic synthesis and API synthesis. It is used across pharmaceutical manufacturing and academic and industrial research.

Standard pack sizes are 500 mL, 5 L and 180 kg, and every batch ships with a Certificate of Analysis (COA) and we export worldwide.
