Molecularweight 5 102.20; Specific gravity (H2O:1) 5 0.81; Boilingpoint 5 132.8℃; Freezing/Melting point 5 2 90℃; Vaporpressure 5 3 mmHg at 20℃; Flash point = 41℃. Theexplosive limits are LEL 5 1.0%; UEL 5 5.5%. HazardIdentification (based on NFPA-704 M Rating System):Health 2, Flammability 2, Reactivity 0. Slightly soluble inwater; solubility 5 2%.
Chemical Properties	colourless liquid
Chemical Properties	MIBC is a colorless liquid with a mild odor. The odor threshold is 0.52 ppm.
Uses	Solvent for dyestuffs, oils, gums, resins, waxes, nitrocellulose, and ethylcellulose; organic synthesis; froth flotation; brake fluids.
Uses	Solvent; organic syntheses; brake fluids
Uses	(^+)-4-Methyl-2-pentanol is employed as a solvent in organic synthesis, dyes and stains, natural resins and waxes. It is an additive to surface coatings. It finds applications in the manufacture of lube oil additives, zinc dialkyldithiophosphate, brake fluids. It is the precursor to some plasticizers and frother in mineral flotation. It acts as a corrosion inhibitor and also utilized in the characterization of volatile fraction of mono varietal wines and tar sand mining processes.
Production Methods	Methyl isobutyl carbinol is prepared commercially as a byproduct of the synthesis of methyl isobutyl ketone.
Synthesis Reference(s)	Journal of the American Chemical Society, 82, p. 3222, 1960 DOI: 10.1021/ja01497a062 Tetrahedron Letters, 25, p. 5897, 1984 DOI: 10.1016/S0040-4039(01)81714-7
General Description	A clear colorless liquid. Flash point 120°F. Less dense than water. Vapors heavier than air.
Air & Water Reactions	Flammable. Soluble in water.
Reactivity Profile	4-Methyl-2-pentanol is an alcohol. Flammable and/or toxic gases are generated by the combination of alcohols with alkali metals, nitrides, and strong reducing agents. They react with oxoacids and carboxylic acids to form esters plus water. Oxidizing agents convert them to aldehydes or ketones. Alcohols exhibit both weak acid and weak base behavior. They may initiate the polymerization of isocyanates and epoxides. 4-Methyl-2-pentanol is incompatible with strong oxidizers .
Hazard	Moderate fire risk, explosive limits in air 1– 5.5%. Eye and upper respiratory tract irritant, and central nervous system impairment.
Health Hazard	Vapor irritates eyes and nose; may cause anesthesia. Prolonged contact with liquid causes irritation and cracking of skin; also irritates eyes.
Fire Hazard	HIGHLY FLAMMABLE: Will be easily ignited by heat, sparks or flames. Vapors may form explosive mixtures with air. Vapors may travel to source of ignition and flash back. Most vapors are heavier than air. They will spread along ground and collect in low or confined areas (sewers, basements, tanks). Vapor explosion hazard indoors, outdoors or in sewers. Runoff to sewer may create fire or explosion hazard. Containers may explode when heated. Many liquids are lighter than water.
Flammability and Explosibility	Flammable
Chemical Reactivity	Reactivity with Water: No reaction; Reactivity with Common Materials: No reaction; Stability During Transport: Stable; Neutralizing Agents for Acids and Caustics: Not pertinent; Polymerization: Not pertinent; Inhibitor of Polymerization: Not pertinent.
Safety Profile	Moderately toxic by ingestion, skin contact, and intraperitoneal routes. Mildly toxic by inhalation. A skin and severe eye irritant. Inhalation of high concentrations can cause anesthesia. Flammable liquid when exposed to heat or flame; can react with oxidizing materials. A moderate explosion hazard when exposed to heat or flame. To fight fire, use alcohol foam. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and fumes.
