2-Ethyl-1,3-hexanediol CAS #94-96-2

2-Ethyl-1,3-hexanediol is a colorless viscous liquid used as a plasticizer in the plastics and resin industry. It is also used in ink formulation to increase the permeability of ink on paper.

First, butyraldehyde is synthesized from propylene. Under the catalysis of alkali or acid, butyraldehyde self-condenses to generate 2-ethyl-3-hydroxyhexanal. This compound is very unstable and can be obtained by hydrogenation to obtain 2-ethyl-1,3-hexanediol.
