General description
2-Methylbutane is a flammable and highly volatile aliphatic hydrocarbon used as a solvent in organic synthesis. It is also used to flash-freeze biological samples in conjunction with dry ice or liquid nitrogen.
Application
2-Methylbutane can be used as:
- A reactant to synthesize isoprene by a two-stage dehydrogenation process using chromia-alumina catalyst.
- A weakly polar solvent to study the intramolecular charge transfer (ICT) effect and the solvatochromic behavior of the pyrene substituted 1,3,4-oxadiazole derivatives.
