Cyclopentyl Methyl Ether – CPME | CAS 5614-37-9
Product Overview
Cyclopentyl Methyl Ether (CPME) is an innovative ether solvent valued for its excellent stability, low peroxide formation, and high hydrophobicity. With a higher boiling point and lower water miscibility compared to traditional ethers, CPME is ideal for moisture-sensitive reactions, azeotropic drying, and extractions. Its resistance to peroxide formation and compatibility with Grignard, organometallic, and acid-catalyzed systems make it a safer, greener alternative in both research and process-scale applications.
Key Industries
- Pharmaceuticals – Used in synthesis, crystallization, and moisture-sensitive reactions
- Fine Chemicals – Preferred for Grignard and organometallic chemistry due to stability
- Agrochemicals – Applied in intermediate manufacturing and process development
- Specialty Solvents – Suitable for azeotropic water removal and high-boiling separations
- Research & Development – Common in academic and industrial labs for low-toxicity solvent work
- Green Chemistry – Considered an environmentally friendly alternative to THF and diethyl ether
Packaging Options
Cyclopentyl Methyl Ether is available in a range of packaging options including glass bottles, metal cans, and bulk containers. Custom volumes, solvent grades, and packaging formats are available to meet the specific needs of laboratory and manufacturing operations.
