2-propanol, also known as isopropanol or Isopropyl alcohol, is a 70% solution in water. It is a secondary alcohol, colorless liquid, widely used as a solvent and intermediate in org-anic syntheses, miscible in solvents such as water, ethanol, ether, ethyl acetate, THF, and chloroform.
ACS solvents meet or exceed the high standards of the American Chemical Society (ACS), with test specifications that are specialized to every compound. According to the American Chemical Society, ACS reagent grade implies that it is a substance of sufficient purity to be used in most chemical analyses or reactions.
