Ambiguous statement. It's not going to be a superior solvent if the solute is towards the polarity of diethyl ether. E.g. I'm simultaneously reading the LAH article and it's 3 times less soluble in dioxane than it is diethyl ether. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.140.228.208 ( talk) 23:50, 10 April 2012 (UTC)
Would one consider 1,4-dioxane to be an aprotic solvent? I don't see it specified in the article.

Should this article cover 1,3-dioxane as well? It seems to me there is not enough material for a separate 1,3-dioxane article. H Padleckas 01:17, 28 May 2005 (UTC)
The Czech page has a good bit about the synthesis of this compound. Anyone care to copy it over?
Does anyone know the proper nomenclature for 1,4-dioxane? It can't be the correct IUPAC nomenclature because "1,4-diox" tells you that there are 2 oxygen's placed at 1 and 4, and "ane" tells you that it is an alkane, but there is no mention of how long the alkane is, or if it is cyclic or not.
Would it be diethylene diether? -- Mark PEA 09:37, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
In my experience, dioxane doesn't smell anything like ether; is there a source for the statement that it does? The bottle of ACS reagent grade 1,4-dioxane I've worked with had a somewhat fishy odour more reminiscent of amines than of other ethers. There could, of course, be something wrong with my dioxane.

The graph should have a legend to indicate the meaning of the coloured lines. 139.57.217.220 ( talk) 15:30, 2 March 2023 (UTC)
