Vinyl n-propyl ether, with the CAS number 764-47-6, is an organic compound classified as an ether. It features a vinyl group (–CH=CH2) attached to a n-propyl group (–C3H7), making it a member of the vinyl ether family. This colorless liquid is known for its characteristic sweet odor and is soluble in organic solvents such as alcohol and ether, but has limited solubility in water. Vinyl n-propyl ether is primarily used as a monomer in the production of polymers and copolymers, particularly in applications involving coatings, adhesives, and sealants due to its ability to undergo polymerization. It is also utilized in the synthesis of various chemical intermediates. The compound is flammable and should be handled with care, as it can pose health risks upon inhalation or skin contact. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment and adequate ventilation, are essential when working with this substance.
