性质描述:  白色晶体，熔点  36-40°C,沸点116℃（26.6Pa）。闪点  >110°C ，可溶于水，冠醚又称大环醚，是含有多个氧原子的大环化合物。命名时，把环上所含原子的总数标注在“冠”字之前，其中所含氧原子数标注在名称之后。这是杜邦公司的Pedersen在1967年意外发现的，并发现这类化合物具有许多异常的特性。

用途：冠醚最主要的特点之一，是可与各种金属盐、铵盐、有机阳离子化合物等形成稳定的络合物。利用这一性质，可将各种盐类溶于有机溶剂。冠醚可将阳离子螯环内，同时由于有朝外的有机基因可生成络合物，亦可溶于非极性的有机溶剂。这时，未被溶剂化的阴离子，以裸露的阴离子形式存在于溶剂中，故活性极大。

冠醚可使碱金属和有机碱金属化合物溶解在有机溶剂中。因而在有机合成、光学拆分、重金属螯合、分离、分析以及生理活性的医药、生物化学等方面找到广泛的应用。例如，用作相转移催化剂，使许多在传统条件下难以反应，甚至不发生的反应，能顺利地进行，这类反应速率快、条件简单、操作方便、产率高。

例如，安息香在水溶液中的缩合反应产率极低，如果在该水溶液中加入7%的冠醚，则可得到产率为78%的安息香。这一反应还可在苯（或乙腈）中进行，尽管氰化钾不溶于苯，但如果加入18-冠-6，则不仅能发生反应，而且产率可高达95%。
