| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [General Description]
A clear colorless liquid. Flash point 35°F. Slightly denser than water. Vapors heavier than air. | [Reactivity Profile]
Ethers, such as DIOXOLANE, can act as bases. They form salts with strong acids and addition complexes with Lewis acids. The complex between diethyl ether and boron trifluoride is an example. Ethers may react violently with strong oxidizing agents. In other reactions, which typically involve the breaking of the carbon-oxygen bond, ethers are relatively inert. | [Air & Water Reactions]
Highly flammable. When exposed to air DIOXOLANE(646-06-0) undergoes autooxidation with formation of peroxides. In the distillation process peroxides will concentrate causing violent explosion. Soluble in water. | [Health Hazard]
Inhalation or contact with material may irritate or burn skin and eyes. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Vapors may cause dizziness or suffocation. Runoff from fire control may cause pollution. | [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. | [Description]
Dioxolane is a water-white liquid. Molecularweight= 74.09; Boiling point = 74℃; Flash point = 2℃(oc). Hazard Identification (based on NFPA-704 M RatingSystem): Health 2, Flammability 4, Reactivity 2. Soluble inwater | [Chemical Properties]

1,3-Dioxolane is an intermediate for the preparation of Acyclovir (A192400). Also, 1,3-Dioxolane is used in the synthesis of new Vandetanib (V097100) analogs. | [Uses]
1,3-Dioxolane is used as an intermediate inorganic synthesis. | [Uses]
Intermediate for the preparation of Acyclovir-d4 | [Application]
1,3-Dioxolane (DOXL) is a cyclic ether. It is a green solvent. It undergoes reaction with C60 to afford an epoxide and 1,3-dioxolane derivative. Reaction has been reported to proceed via a diradical mechanism. A mixture of tetra(ethylene glycol) dimethyl ether (TEGDME) and DOXL has been used to compose the binary electrolyte for use in lithium-sulfur battery. Its efficacy as a solvent in a non-aqueous redox flow battery system has been tested. 1,3-Dioxolane may be used in the fabrication of batteries and capacitors. It may be used as one of the co-solvent to prepare the electrolyte for lithium-sulfur batteries. | [Definition]
ChEBI: A cyclic acetal that is pentane in which the carbon atoms at positions 1 and 3 are replaced by oxygen atoms respectively. | [Flammability and Explosibility]
Highlyflammable | [Industrial uses]
1,3-Dioxolane is used to dissolve a wide spectrum of polymeric materials such as
acrylates, alkyds, cellulosics, epoxies, polycarbonates, polyesters, urethanes, and
vinyl resins. In many cases, 1,3-dioxolane solvent can replace the chlorinated
solvents that were used previously to dissolve many of these polymers. The
excellent solvency of 1,3-dioxolane for polymeric compositions makes this cyclic
ether a valuable component in paint remover formulations. 1,3-Dioxolane is used to
treat polyester fibers for improved dye retention, application of cross-linking agents
to cellulosic fibers, and bonding of acrylonitrile polymers. 1,3-Dioxolane is used in
metal working and electroplating formulations, as a complexing solvent for
organometallic and inorganic salts, and in the preparation of lithium battery
electrolyte solutions. 1,3-Dioxolane is a valuable reactant in the polymerization
reactions to produce polyacetals. Polymerization reactions of dioxolane with itself
or with aldehydes and ethers are catalyzed by a Lewis acid to yield the polyacetal
polymers. The methylene group (CH2) bonded to the two oxygen atoms in
dioxolane is susceptible to radical abstraction of a hydrogen atom and the resultant
dioxolane radical species can be added across various double bond configurations. | [Potential Exposure]
It is a low-boiling solvent and used forextraction of oils, fats, waxes, dyes, and cellulose derivatives.May be used as a cross-linking agent in phenolic resins. | [First aid]
If this chemical gets into the eyes, remove anycontact lenses at once and irrigate immediately for at least15 min, occasionally lifting upper and lower lids. Seek medical attention immediately. If this chemical contacts theskin, remove contaminated clothing and wash immediatelywith soap and water. Seek medical attention immediately. Ifthis chemical has been inhaled, remove from exposure,begin rescue breathing (using universal precautions, including resuscitation mask) if breathing has stopped and CPR ifheart action has stopped. Transfer promptly to a medicalfacility. When this chemical has been swallowed, getmedical attention. Give large quantities of water and inducevomiting. Do not make an unconscious person vomit | [storage]
Color Code—Red: Flammability Hazard: Store ina flammable liquid storage area or approved cabinet awayfrom ignition sources and corrosive and reactive materials.Prior to working with this chemical you should be trainedon its proper handling and storage. Store in tightly closedcontainers in a cool, well-ventilated area away from oxidizers and reducing agents. Where possible, automaticallypump liquid from drums or other storage containers to process containers. | [Shipping]
This compound requires a shipping label of“FLAMMABLE LIQUID.” It falls in Hazard Class 3 andPacking Group II | [Purification Methods]
Dry it with solid NaOH, KOH or CaSO4, and distil it from sodium or sodium amalgam. Barker et al. [J Chem Soc 802 1959] heated 34mL of dioxalane under reflux with 3g of PbO2 for 2hours, then cooled and filtered. After adding xylene (40mL) and PbO2 (2g) to the filtrate, the mixture is fractionally distilled. Addition of xylene (20mL) and sodium wire to the main fraction (b 70-71o) led to a vigorous reaction, following which the mixture was again fractionally distilled. Xylene and sodium additions are made to the main fraction (b 73-74o) before it is finally distilled. [Beilstein 19/1 V 6.] | [Incompatibilities]
