This post was last edited by Fengshan on 2015-9-15 21:47. [Daily Question] True or False: The full name of MTBE is methyl sec-butyl ether (False). It is actually methyl tert-butyl ether, as the methyl group is located on the third carbon of the carbon chain.

Wrong. MTBE (methyl tert-butyl ether) is the English abbreviation for methyl tert-butyl ether.

Wrong, MTBE is methyl tert-butyl ether, which is produced by the reaction of methanol and isobutylene in the presence of an acidic catalyst.
Reply #52015-09-15
Methyl sec-butyl ether, abbreviated as MSBE, is the product of the reaction between 1-butene and methanol. It usually appears as a by-product in the production of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE); it is colorless, flammable, and irritating.
