tert-Amyl methyl ether Chemical Properties, Uses, Production
Chemical Properties
CLEAR COLOURLESS LIQUID
Uses
Fuel additive for gasoline.
Uses
TAME has been used as a reference standard for the determination of the analyte in Catalonian groundwater and soil samples by purge-and-trap gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (P&T-GC/MS) and in aqueous solutions by solid-phase microextraction (SPME) combined with GC-MS. It may be used as a reference standard for the identification of the analyte in gasoline-contaminated groundwater by GC combined with various detectors/quantification methods such as photoionization detector (PID), flame ionization detector (FID), or MS.
General Description
tert-Amyl methyl ether is an fuel ether oxygenate and has been quantitated in water by membrane extraction ion mobility spectrometry. tert-Amyl methyl ether is also referred to as 2-methoxy-2-methyl butane. Kinetics of ion exchange resin (Amberlyst 18) catalyzed tert-amyl methyl ether reactions have been investigated.
Flammability and Explosibility
Highly flammable
Safety Profile
Moderately toxic by ingestion. When heated to decomposition it emits acrid smoke and irritating vapors.
Toxics Screening Level
The Initial Threshold Screening Level (ITSL) for tertiary-amyl methyl ether is 62 μg/m3 with annual averaging time.
