Description

General description

2-Butyl-1-octanol (BuOA) is a long-chain glass forming monohydroxy alcohol.

Application

2-Butyl-1-octanol (BuOA) has been used to synthesize:

2-butyl-1-octyl-methacrylate (BOMA)
3,5,5-trimethyl-1-hexyl methacrylate (TMHMA)
hydrophobic polyesters in miniemulsion in the presence of large amounts of water

It has also been used as an extraction solvent in extractive fed-batch experiments.

Assessment of morphological changes of Clostridium acetobutylicum by flow cytometry during acetone/butanol/ethanol extractive fermentation.

Helena González-Peñas et al.

Biotechnology letters, 37(3), 577-584 (2014-10-30)

Acetone/butanol/ethanol (ABE) fermentation by Clostridium acetobutylicum was investigated in extractive fed-batch experiments. In conventional fermentations, metabolic activity ceases when a critical threshold products concentration is reached (~21.6 g solvents l(-1)). Solvents production was increased up to 36.6 and 37.2 g

Synthesis and characterization of anionic amphiphilic model conetworks of 2-butyl-1-octyl-methacrylate and methacrylic acid: effects of polymer composition and architecture.

Langmuir : the ACS journal of surfaces and colloids, 23(21), 10746-10755 (2007-09-11)

Seven amphiphilic conetworks of methacrylic acid (MAA) and a new hydrophobic monomer, 2-butyl-1-octyl-methacrylate (BOMA), were synthesized using group transfer polymerization. The MAA units were introduced via the polymerization of tetrahydropyranyl methacrylate (THPMA) followed by the removal of the protecting tetrahydropyranyl
