Tetrahydrofuran
Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is a cyclic ether. It is a colorless, water-miscible organic liquid with low viscosity and a smell similar to diethyl ether. At low concentrations it has a faint, fruity aroma. It is one of the most polar ethers. THF is naturally present in coffee aroma, floured chickpeas, and cooked chicken. It is used in the manufacture of polymers as well as agricultural, pharmaceutical, and commodity chemicals. Because of its widespread use (industrially) and its presence in many foods, THF is a contaminant of exposure and can appear in human biofluids. THF oxidizes readily, which can lead to instability and result in cytotoxicity. In chemical synthesis applications, THF is often used for hydroborations used to synthesize primary alcohols. THF is frequently used as a solvent for Grignard reagents because of the oxygen atoms ability to coordinate to the magnesium ion component of the Grignard reagent (an organometallic chemical reaction involving alkyl- or aryl-magnesium halides). THF is often used in polymer science. For example, it can be used to dissolve rubber prior to determining its molecular mass using gel permeation chromatography. THF tends to form peroxides on storage in air. (PMID: 16999122, 12742700, 14619948). THF can be degraded by certain strains of Rhodococcus bacteria (PMID: 19230656). Tetrahydrofuran (THF) is a contaminant of exposure and appears in human biofluids. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has announced recommendations to revise the permitted daily exposures for THF, and so has the International Conference on Harmonisation. THF oxidizes readily, which can lead to instability and result in cytotoxicity. It is a colourless low-viscosity liquid with a smell similar to diethyl ether and is one of the most polar ethers. Tetrahydrofuran is essentially considered in occupational toxicology, and acute poisoning cases are extremely rare. THF is often used for hydroborations used to synthesize primary alcohols. THF is often used as a solvent for Grignard reagents because of the oxygen atoms ability to coordinate to the magnesium ion component of the Grignard reagent (an organometallic chemical reaction involving alkyl- or aryl-magnesium halides). THF is often used in polymer science. For example, it can be used to dissolve rubber prior to determining its molecular mass using gel permeation chromatography.
