Overview of Diethyl Ether

Diethyl Ether (C2H5)2O can be described as a highly flammable and volatile organic solvent that is widely utilised in the chemical synthesis process as well as in laboratories, pharmaceuticals, and industrial applications. It's admired for its outstanding solvency, lower boiling point and its excellent purity. This makes it ideal for purification, extraction and other synthetic processes.

Diethyl Ether's formula is C4H10O. Its structure is comprised of two ethyl groups linked to an oxygen atom, giving it a strong ether-like functionality as well as excellent solubility in organic solvents. Diethyl Ether is generally an inert liquid that has an odour reminiscent of ether and is well-known for its speedy evaporation and superior solvent properties.
