Diphenyl ether is the organic compound with the formula (C 6 H 5) 2 O. It is a colorless, low-melting solid. It is a colorless, low-melting solid. This, the simplest diaryl ether , has a variety of niche applications.
Diethyl ether has higher water solubility of 8 g per 100 mL, versus diphenyl ether, with a solubility of 0.002 g per 100 mL. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] The presence of the aromatic ring also draws electrons away from the ethereal oxygen, making the hydrolysis of a phenol ether significantly more difficult than that of an alkyl ether.

Poly(p-phenylene oxide) (PPO), poly(p-phenylene ether) (PPE), poly(oxy-2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene), often referred to simply as polyphenylene oxide, is a high-temperature thermoplastic with the general formula (C 8 H 8 O) n. It is rarely used in its pure form due to difficulties in processing.
Decabromodiphenyl ether (also referred to as decaBDE, DBDE, BDE-209) is a brominated flame retardant which belongs to the group of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs). It was commercialised in the 1970s and was initially thought to be safe, [ 3 ] [ 4 ] but is now recognised as a hazardous and persistent pollutant.
Poly(2,6-diphenylphenylene oxide) is a low bleeding material with a low level of impurities, and has a high thermal stability (up to 350 °C). Before use poly(2,6-diphenylphenylene oxide) should be thermally conditioned with a high purity gas at elevated temperatures to remove any residual components.
The name DPEphos is derived from diphenyl ether (DPE) which makes up the ligand's backbone. It is similar to Xantphos, another diphosphine ligand, but is more flexible and has a smaller bite angle (104 vs 108°). [1] It is synthesized from chlorodiphenylphosphine and DPE. [2]
As is typical of ethers, dipropyl ether may slowly form explosive organic peroxides over long periods in storage. [2] Antioxidants such as butylated hydroxytoluene are often added to ethers to prevent this process. [4] Due to the shock and light sensitive nature of organic peroxides, dipropyl ether should never be boiled or evaporated to dryness.
Celamerck scientists were also working on analogs retaining the 4-nitrodiphenyl ether framework and in 1978 filed a patent of relatively narrow scope which claimed compounds having an amine group adjacent to the nitro substituent and also having an additional chlorine atom between the amine and the oxygen of the diphenyl ether. 2-Chloro-3-phenoxy-6-nitroaniline was described as having ...
