Ethylene glycol (IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol) is an organic compound (a vicinal diol [7]) with the formula (CH 2 OH) 2. It is mainly used for two purposes: as a raw material in the manufacture of polyester fibers and for antifreeze formulations. It is an odorless, colorless, flammable, viscous liquid.
Ethane-1,2-dithiol, also known as EDT, [1] is a colorless liquid with the formula C 2 H 4 2. It has a very characteristic odor which is compared by many people to rotten cabbage . It is a common building block in organic synthesis and an excellent ligand for metal ions.

1,2-Butanediol is a byproduct of the production of 1,4-butanediol from butadiene. [8] It is also a byproduct of the catalytic hydrocracking of starches and sugars such as sorbitol to ethylene glycol and propylene glycol. [9] It can also be obtained from the dihydroxylation of but-1-ene by OsO 4.
Ethylene glycol dimethylacrylate (EGDMA) is a diester formed by condensation of two equivalents of methacrylic acid and one equivalent of ethylene glycol. [2]EGDMA can be used in free radical copolymer crosslinking reactions.
A major industrial route involves the reaction of acetaldehyde and acetic anhydride in the presence of a ferric chloride catalyst: [1] [2] CH 3 CHO + (CH 3 CO) 2 O → (CH 3 CO 2) 2 CHCH 3. It can be converted to the valuable monomer vinyl acetate by thermal elimination of acetic acid: (CH 3 CO 2) 2 CHCH 3 → CH 3 CO 2 CH=CH 2 + CH 3 CO 2 H
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.
