A classic laboratory method involves Bouveault-Blanc reduction of ethyl laurate. [4] Dodecanol is used to make surfactants, which are used in lubricating oils, and pharmaceuticals. Millions of tons of sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) are produced annually by sulfation of dodecyl alcohol: [6] SO 3 + CH 3 (CH 2) 10 CH 2 OH → CH 3 (CH 2) 10 CH 2 OSO 3 H
This page contains tables of azeotrope data for various binary and ternary mixtures of solvents. The data include the composition of a mixture by weight (in binary azeotropes, when only one fraction is given, it is the fraction of the second component), the boiling point (b.p.) of a component, the boiling point of a mixture, and the specific gravity of the mixture.

Poly(styrene) has a solubility parameter of 9.1 cal 1/2 cm −3/2, and thus ethyl acetate is likely to be a good solvent. Nylon 6,6 has a solubility parameter of 13.7 cal 1/2 cm −3/2 , and ethanol is likely to be the best solvent of those tabulated.
For example, from 1-decene, hydroformylation gives the C 11 alcohol: C 8 H 17 CH=CH 2 + H 2 + CO → C 8 H 17 CH 2 CH 2 CHO C 8 H 17 CH 2 CH 2 CHO + H 2 → C 8 H 17 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 OH. In the Shell higher olefin process, the chain-length distribution in the initial mixture of alkene oligomers is adjusted so as to more closely match market demand.
It is formed by the ethoxylation chemical reaction of dodecanol (lauryl alcohol) to give a material with 5 repeat units of ethylene glycol. Multilamellar vesicle formation [ edit ]
The branching in 2-ethyl-1-butanol makes it harder to crystallize due to packing disruption, which results in a very low freezing point. Esters of 2-ethyl-1-butanol are similarly effected and it therefore finds application as a feedstock in the production of plasticizers and lubricants, where its presence helps reduce viscosity and lower freezing points.
