Uses
Primary
- Feedstock for propene
Other
- solvent alcohol miscible with water but can be salted out
Natural occurrence
Hazards
20mg/kg has a toxic effect on humans. Less (comparably) than methanol.
Production
Synthesis
- Catalytically hydrogenate propanone to isopropanol using urushibara nickel.
- 2 C3H7O + H2{Ni2 C3H7OH}→
- 2 C3H7O + H2
