AI Thread Summary
The discussion centers on identifying the boiling point (bp) of 2-methylbutan-2-ol based on NMR and IR results. Dan seeks confirmation of the boiling point, and a participant references the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS), stating that the bp is 102°C. There is acknowledgment of varying bp values found in other sources, but the 102°C is considered the most accurate.

hey
I have been doing some ID work and my NMR/IR results have shown I am working with 2-methylbutan-2-ol would anyone know where I could find the bp or does anyone know it?

thanks
Dan
 
Chemistry news on Phys.org
the msds says it has a bp of 102:

yeah I have been getting a few varied ones but i think the 102 is most accurate

thanks
 
I want to test a humidity sensor with one or more saturated salt solutions. The table salt that I have on hand contains one of two anticaking agents, calcium silicate or sodium aluminosilicate. Will the presence of either of these additives (or iodine for that matter) significantly affect the equilibrium humidity? I searched and all the how-to-do-it guides did not address this question. One research paper I found reported that at 1.5% w/w calcium silicate increased the deliquescent point by...
