Molecular Structure:

2,2'-Dichlorodiethyl Ether Property:

Colorless and transparent, no-corrosive, chloroform-like odor stable oily liquid. The freezing point is -50℃. The boiling point is 178℃ and 66℃ (12mm Hg). The relative density is 1.210g/cm3 (20/4℃). The refractory index is 1.457. The flash point is 55℃. It is miscible with organic solvents such as alcohol, ether, oil, esters, slightly soluble in water, to form azeotrope with water.

2,2'-Dichlorodiethyl Ether Reactivity Profile

2,2'-Dichlorodiethyl ether may form phosgene or hydrogen when heated to high temperature. Oxidizes readily in air to form unstable peroxides that may explode spontaneously. Mixing in equal molar portions with the following substances in a closed container caused the temperature and pressure to increase: chlorosulfonic acid and oleum.

2,2'-Dichlorodiethyl Ether Purification Safety Profile

A poison by ingestion, skin contact, and inhalation. A skin, eye, and mucous membrane irritant. Questionable carcinogen with experimental carcinogenic and tumorigenic data. Mutation data reported. Exposure to 1000 ppm for 30 to 60 minutes may result in death within days. The odor is easily detectable at 35 ppm whch causes only slight irritation. Flammable liquid when exposed to heat, flame, or oxidants. Dangerous explosion hazard; reacts vigorously with oleum, chlorosulfonic acid. Reacts with water or steam to evolve toxic and corrosive fumes. Can react vigorously with oxidizing materials. To fight fire, use water, foam, mist, fog, spray, dry chemical. When heated to decomposition it emits toxic fumes of Cl-. See also ETHERS.

2,2'-Dichlorodiethyl Ether Purification Methods

Wash the ether with conc H2SO4, then Na2CO3 solution, dry with anhydrous Na2CO3, and finally pass it through a 50cm column of activated alumina before distillation. Altern

2,2'-Dichlorodiethyl Ether Incompatibilities

Contact with moisture caused decomposition producing hydrochloric acid. Can form peroxides. May form explosive mixture with air. Contact with strong oxidizers may cause fire and explosion hazard. Attacks some plastics, rubber, and coatings. Attacks metals in the presence of moisture
