'''Isopropyl alcohol''' (also '''isopropanol''', '''iso''', '''[[rubbing alcohol]]''', or the abbreviation '''IPA''') is a common name for '''propan-2-ol''', a colorless, flammable [[chemical compound]] with a strong odor.  It has the [[chemical formula]] C<sub>3</sub>H<sub>8</sub>O and is the simplest example of a [[Alcohol#Primary.2C secondary.2C and tertiary alcohols|''secondary alcohol'']], where the [[alcohol]] carbon is attached to two other carbons.  It is an [[isomer]] of [[Propan-1-ol|propanol]].

The former process, which can use low quality propylene,  predominates in the USA while the latter process, which requires high-purity propylene, is more commonly used in Europe. These processes give predominantely isopropyl alcohol rather than propan-1-ol because the addition of water (or sulfuric acid) to propylene follows [[Markovnikov's rule]].


The indirect process reacts proplyene with [[sulfuric acid]] to form a mixture of sulfate esters. Subsequent [[hydrolysis]] of these esters produces isopropyl alcohol. Direct hydration reacts propylene and water, either in gas or liquid phases, at high pressures in the presence of solid or supported acidic [[catalysts]]. Both types of processes require that the isopropyl alcohol be separated from water and other by-products by [[distillation]]. Isopropyl alcohol and water form an [[azeotrope]] and simple distillation gives a material which is 87.9% by weight isopropyl alcohol and 12.1% by weight water.<ref>CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, 44th ed. pp 2143-2184</ref> Pure (anhydrous) isopropyl alcohol is made by [[azeotropic distillation]] of the "wet" isopropyl alcohol using either [[diisopropyl ether]] or [[cyclohexane]] as azeotroping agents.

==Uses==
[[Sterilization (microbiology)|Sterilizing]] pads typically contain a 60-70% [[solution]] of isopropanol in [[water (molecule)|water]]. Isopropyl alcohol is also commonly used as a [[cleaner]] and [[solvent]] in industry.  It is also used as a [[gasoline]] additive for dissolving water or ice in fuel lines. Although Isopropanol is sometimes sold as "Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol, 70% (or 90%)" and "Isopropyl Rubbing Alcohol, 99%" (harder to find but generally more useful for experimenters & cleaning uses), there is no isopropyl alcohol in the [[United States Pharmacopeia]] formula for [[Rubbing alcohol|Rubbing alcohol, U.S.P.]]. It is used as a [[disinfectant]], and is a common solvent.


Isopropanol is a major ingredient in "dry-gas" [[fuel additive]].  In significant quantities, [[water]] is a problem in fuel tanks as it separates from the gasoline and can freeze in the supply lines at cold temperatures.  The isopropanol does not remove the water from the gasoline.  Rather, the isopropanol solubilizes the water in the gasoline.  Once [[soluble]], the water does not pose the same risk as insoluble water as it will no longer accumulate in the supply lines and freeze.


It is also a very good cleaning agent and often used for cleaning [[electronics|electronic]] devices such as contact pins (like those on [[read-only memory|ROM]] [[cartridge (electronics)|cartridges]]), [[magnetic tape]] deck and [[floppy disk]] drive heads, the lenses of [[lasers]] in [[optical disc]] drives (e.g. [[CD]], [[DVD]]) and removing [[thermal paste]] from [[central processing unit|CPUs]]. It is also used to clean [[liquid crystal display|LCD]] and glass [[computer monitor]] screens (at some risk to the anti-reflection coating of the screen), and used by many music shops to give second-hand or worn [[Gramophone record|records]] newer looking sheens. It cleans white boards very well and other unwanted ink related marks. Isopropyl alcohol also works well at removing smudges, dirt, and fingerprints from [[cell phones]] and [[PDA]]s.

==Chemistry==
Unlike [[ethanol]] or [[methanol]], isopropanol can be separated from aqueous solutions by adding a salt such as [[sodium chloride]], [[sodium sulfate]], or any of several other inorganic salts.<ref>''Merck Index of Chemicals and Drugs'', 9th ed. monograph 5069</ref> The process is colloquially called [[salting out]], and causes concentrated isopropanol to separate into a distinct layer.


Being a secondary alcohol, isopropanol can be [[Redox|oxidised]] to the [[ketone]] [[acetone]].  This can be achieved using oxidising agents such as [[chromic acid]], or by [[dehydrogenation]] of isopropanol over a heated copper [[catalyst]]:


(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>CH-OH  →  [[Acetone|(CH<sub>3</sub>)<sub>2</sub>C=O]]  +  [[Hydrogen|H<sub>2</sub>]]


Isopropanol may be converted to [[2-bromopropane]] using [[phosphorus tribromide]], or dehydrated to [[propylene]] by heating with [[sulfuric acid]]. 


Isopropanol is often used as a [[hydride]] source in the [[Meerwein-Ponndorf-Verley reduction]].
<!--Category-->


Like most alcohols, isopropyl alcohol reacts with active [[metal]]s such as [[potassium]] to form [[alkoxide]]s which can be called ''isopropoxides''.  The reaction with [[aluminium]] (initiated by a trace of [[Mercury (element)|mercury]]) is used to prepare the catalyst [[aluminium isopropoxide]].
[[Category:Drug]]
 
Isopropanol has a maximal [[absorbance]] at 204 nm in an [[Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy|ultraviolet-visible]] spectrum.
 
==Safety==
Isopropyl alcohol vapor is heavier than air and is highly [[flammable]] with a very wide combustible range.  It should be kept away from heat and open flame. When mixed with air or other oxidizers it can explode through [[deflagration]].<ref>{{cite web | url=http://physchem.ox.ac.uk/MSDS/PR/2-propanol.html |title=Safety (MSDS) data for 2-propanol |accessdate=2006-09-28}}</ref>
 
Isopropyl alcohol is oxidized by the liver into [[acetone]]. [[Symptom]]s of isopropyl alcohol poisoning include [[flushing (physiology)|flushing]], [[headache]], [[dizziness]], [[CNS depression]], [[nausea]], [[vomiting]], [[anesthesia]], and [[coma]].  Use in well-ventilated areas and use protective gloves while using.  Poisoning can occur from ingestion, inhalation, or absorption.
 
Long term application to the skin can cause [[defatting]].
 
==Medicine/Toxicology==
Isopropyl alcohol is about twice as toxic as [[ethanol]]. Isopropyl alcohol does not cause an [[anion gap]] [[acidosis]] (like [[ethanol]] or [[methanol]]).  It produces an elevated [[osmolal gap]], but generally no abnormal anion gap (though this may be seen as a result of [[hypotension]] and [[lactic acidosis]]).  Overdoses may cause a fruity odor on the breath as a result of its metabolism to give [[acetone]] (which is not further metabolised)<ref>Tiess, D: Z. ges. Hygiene 31, 530-531 (1985)</ref>.  While large quantities of isopropanol can be fatal if left untreated, it is not nearly as toxic as methanol or ethylene glycol.
