[Chemical Knowledge]:What are the upstream raw materials for hexanol and what are the downstream products?

Hexanol is an important organic chemical raw material, which is widely used in the production of various chemicals. In the field of chemical production raw materials, the upstream and downstream related products of hexanol are very rich. The upstream and downstream associated products of hexanol will be described in detail below.

1. the upstream products of hexanol

1. Ethylene: Ethylene is one of the main raw materials of hexanol, ethanol is produced by ethylene hydration method, and then ethanol is dehydrogenated to produce hexanol.
2. Propylene: Propylene can also be used to produce hexanol by oxo synthesis, but this method is not as widely used as the ethylene hydration method.

2. the downstream products of hexanol

1. Ethyl hexanoate: Ethyl hexanoate reacts with acetic acid to produce ethyl hexanoate, which is an important solvent and fragrance and is widely used in food, medicine and cosmetics industries.
2. Hexanal: Hexanal can be prepared by dehydrogenation of hexanol. Hexanal is an important organic intermediate used in the production of spices and pharmaceutical intermediates.
3. Hexanoic acid: Hexanol can be oxidized to hexanoic acid, which is an important organic acid used in the production of plastic plasticizers, food additives, etc.
4. Caprolactam: Hexanol can react with ammonia and carbon dioxide to form caprolactam. Caprolactam is an important nylon monomer used in the production of engineering plastics.

above is only a part of the upstream and downstream related products of hexanol, in fact, hexanol is widely used in organic synthesis and can be used as a raw material to produce many other chemicals.

In short, hexanol has an important position in the field of chemical production raw materials, its upstream and downstream related products are very rich, widely used in various fields.
