Simple exploration of 2,2′-(Ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy))diethanol

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,112-27-6, its application will become more common.

Synthetic Route of 112-27-6, In the chemical reaction process,reaction time,type of solvent,can easily affect the result of the reaction, thereby determining the yield and properties of the reaction product.An updated downstream synthesis route of 112-27-6 as follows.

To a mixture of Ag2O (12.4 g, 100 mmol) and KI (4.42 g, 26.64 mmol) in DCM (200 mL) was added 2,2?-(ethane-1,2-diylbis(oxy))diethanol (10 g, 66.6 mmol) dropwise at room temperature. Then BnBr (12.5 g, 73.26 mmol) was added dropwise into the mixture over 10 min. After addition, the mixture was stirred at room temperature for 2 h. The reaction mixture was filtered. The combined filtrate was concentrated under reduced pressure. The residue was purified by silica gel column chromatography to give 2-(2-(2-(benzyloxy)ethoxy)ethoxy)ethanol (7 g, 43.8%) as a colorless oil. LC/MS (ESI, m/z): [M+1]+=241.0.

These compound has a wide range of applications. It is believed that with the continuous development of the source of the synthetic route,112-27-6, its application will become more common.
