| | Hexaethylene glycol Usage And Synthesis |
| Description | Hexaethylene glycol is a polymer consisting of ethylene glycol monomers and two terminal hydroxyl groups. The PEG chain increases the water solubility of a compound in aqueous media. Increasing the number of ethylene glycol units within the entire chain improves the solubility properties of the PEG linker. | | Chemical Properties | viscous colourless liquid | | Uses | Substrate employed in the synthesis of binaphthol-based macrocyclic ethers using intramolecular oxidative coupling with CuCl(OH)-TMEDA.1 | | Uses | Hexaethylene Glycol is part of a leaf extract (Murdannia Bracteata) which exhibits antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-cancer properties.

uids. | | Uses | Hexaethylene glycol exhibits antioxidant, antimicrobial and anti-cancer properties. It also shows potential application as functional hydraulic fluids. It is used as a surfactant building block as well as used in biological sample preparation. Further, it is employed in the synthesis of binaphthol-based macrocyclic ethers using intramolecular oxidative coupling with CuCl(OH). | | Definition | ChEBI: Hexaethylene glycol is a poly(ethylene glycol). |
