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

Product Details

Ethyl hexanediol is not irritating to human skin but may cause chemical conjunctivitis. It serves as a standard repellent for chiggers, mosquitoes, black flies, and other biting insects. When combined with dimethyl phthalate and indalone, this mixture becomes more effective in repelling ticks and flies when applied to clothing.

2-Ethyl-1,3-hexanediol (EHD) serves multiple purposes, including:

Acting as a boron extractant.

Functioning as a reactive solvent in the non-hydrolytic sol-gel method for synthesizing magnetic iron-oxide nanoparticles.

Serving as a precursor in the selective synthesis of 2-ethyl-1-hydroxy-3-hexanone via oxidation with H2O2.
