They are insoluble in cold water, benzene, ethyl ether, and acetone. Ethylene oxide is readily soluble in water, ethanol, diethyl ether and many organic solvents. It is soluble in diethyl ether and ethanol as well as miscible with chloroform. It is very soluble in acetone, benzene, diethyl ether and ethanol. It is soluble in dichloromethane, chloroform, benzene, diethyl ether, carbon disulfide and oil of turpentine. It is almost insoluble in alcohol but readily soluble in chloroform or ether. It is poorly soluble in hexane and cold diethyl ether. Good solvents are likely to be diethyl ether and hexane. Isopropyl alcohol is miscible in water, ethanol, ether, and chloroform. It is miscible with ethanol, acetone, chloroform, diethyl ether, and fixed oils. It is soluble in ethanol, diethyl ether, and benzene. It is soluble in alcohol, ether, benzene and chloroform. It is miscible with water, ethanol and diethyl ether. This material can be purified by recrystallization from diethyl ether. Phenylmagnesium bromide is commercially available as solutions of diethyl ether or THF.
