Product Description: 2-Methyltetrahydrofuran (MeTHF) is widely used as a solvent in various chemical reactions, particularly in organic synthesis. It is favored for its ability to dissolve a broad range of compounds, including polar and non-polar substances, making it versatile in processes like Grignard reactions, organometallic chemistry, and polymerization. Its low toxicity and biodegradability also make it an attractive alternative to traditional solvents such as tetrahydrofuran (THF) in green chemistry applications. Additionally, MeTHF is employed in the pharmaceutical industry for drug formulation and extraction processes due to its stability and compatibility with sensitive compounds. In the production of biofuels, it serves as a solvent for biomass processing, aiding in the efficient conversion of raw materials into usable energy sources. Its use extends to the electronics industry, where it is utilized in the manufacturing of semiconductors and other electronic components.
