Application
Di-iso-amyl ether is widely employed as a solvent in organic synthesis, particularly for Grignard reactions and other organometallic processes due to its non-reactive nature. It serves as an effective extraction medium for separating polar and non-polar compounds in liquid-liquid extractions. Additionally, its high boiling point and stability make it suitable for use as a reaction solvent in high-temperature applications.
