Cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) is a high-performance green solvent widely adopted in pharmaceutical synthesis and organic chemistry. Produced via the etherification of cyclopentanol with methanol, it offers superior stability compared to traditional ethers. Its molecular formula is C6H12O with CAS number 765-80-6.
Storage requires cool, dry conditions away from oxidizers to prevent peroxide accumulation. Strict adherence to PPE guidelines is mandatory during handling to mitigate inhalation risks and skin contact hazards.
