2-Ethylhexanal is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH(C 2 H 5)CHO. A colorless liquid, it is produced on a large scale industrially as a precursor to 2-ethylhexanoic acid and 2-ethylhexanol, both used as precursors to plasticizers. It was studied in the detergent industry since the 1930s. [2]
2-Ethylhexanol exhibits low toxicity in animal models, with LD50 ranging from 2-3 g/kg (rat). [3] 2-Ethylhexanol has been identified as a cause of indoor air quality related health problems, such as respiratory system irritation, as a volatile organic compound. 2-Ethylhexanol is emitted to air from a PVC flooring installed on concrete that had not been dried properly.

Sunset legislation passed by the Texas Legislature in 2001 changed the agency's name to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality and continued the agency until 2013. During the special session of the 81st Legislature (2009), legislation was adopted amending the 2013 date to 2011, [ 4 ] when the agency was continued for an additional 12 ...
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) adipate or DEHA or DOA is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2 CH 2 CO 2 C 8 H 17) 2. It is the diester of 2-ethylhexanol and adipic acid. It is a colorless oily liquid. DEHA is sometimes called "dioctyl adipate", incorrectly. Another name is di(2-ethylhexyl) adipate. The abbreviation DOA has been unfortunately used for ...
It is the fluoroacetate (FCH 2 CO 2 −) ester of 2-ethylhexanol, in other words, the 2-ethylhexyl (−CH 2 CH(CH 2 CH 3)CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 CH 3) ester of fluoroacetic acid. It can be produced by reaction of ethyl fluoroacetate with 2-ethylhexanol. 2-Ethylhexyl fluoroacetate is a liquid that is highly toxic by skin absorption. [1] [2]
One of the main cetane improver additives manufactured today is 2-ethylhexyl nitrate (CAS n°: 27247-96-7) [1] which starts to decompose at 130 °C. 2-ethylhexyl nitrate is the result of the reaction of 2-ethylhexanol and nitric acid.
Bis(2-ethylhexyl) maleate is the chemical compound with the structural formula (H 3 C(−CH 2) 3 −CH(−CH 2 −CH 3)−CH 2 −O−C(=O)−CH=) 2, where the two carboxylate groups are mutually cis. It can be described as the double ester of maleic acid with the alcohol 2-ethylhexanol.
