Application

1-Propanol may be used as a starting material in the vapour-phase synthesis of 2-propylphenol and 3-pentanone over CeO2-MgO and CeO2-Fe2O3 catalysts, respectively. It may also be used as a solvent for the palladium catalyzed cross-coupling of boronic acids with aryl halides to form biaryls.
