Application
Cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) is an alternative to ether solvents such as THF, diethyl ether, and MTBE with a higher resistance to peroxide formation.The more environmentally conservative CPME solvent replaces hazardous solvents in order to achieve sustainability and reduce environmental and operational costs.CPME offers considerable potential and advantage as a direct replacement for CH2Cl2 in binary eluents using MeOH as the modifier with MeOH–DMC and i-PrOH–EtOAc.

Features and Benefits
Greener alternative for THF, Diethyl ether, and MTBE
General description
We are committed to bringing you Greener Alternative Products, which adhere to one or more of The 12 Principles of Greener Chemistry. Cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME) is a greener alternative to other ethereal solvents such as tetrahydrofuran (THF), 2-methyl tetrahydrofuran (2-MeTHF), dioxane (carcinogenic), tert-Butyl methyl ether (MTBE), and 1,2-dimethoxyethane (DME) and thus has been enhanced for "Safer Solvents and Auxiliaries".
