General description
2-Butanol is secondary alcohol mainly used as a solvent in organic synthesis. 2-butanol readily converts into 2-butanone (methyl ethyl ketone, MEK), which is used as a solvent in the industrial sector and many domestic cleaning products. It is an intermediate in devulcanizing rubber and the production of alkyl ester for use as biodiesel fuel.
Application
2-Butanol is used:
- As a precursor to produce 2-butanone in presence of KMnO4 oxidant and CPC (N-cetylpyridinium chloride) micellar catalyst.
- In the production of CH3NH3PbI3 perovskite films.

This article introduces the concept of chiral ion mobility spectrometry (CIMS) and presents examples demonstrating the gas-phase separation of enantiomers of a wide range of racemates including pharmaceuticals, amino acids, and carbohydrates. CIMS is similar to traditional ion mobility spectrometry

In this article, we investigate vapor-liquid-liquid equilibria (VLLE) of binary systems using a simple volumetric method. Being different from the usual cloud-point method for the determination of liquid-liquid separation boundaries, the present volumetric method is able to determine the direct

The effect of temperature and concentration on the structure of sec-butyl alcohol and isobutyl alcohol/water binary mixtures in the alcohol-rich region (mole fraction of water X(H2O) < 0.3) has been studied using Fourier transform (FT) near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy. The experimental
