As a result, it is soluble in water and non-polar solvents.

Reactions are typically carried out in aprotic or non-polar solvents.

Its complexes also tend to be highly soluble in non-polar solvents.

In non-polar solvents and at high concentration a concerted mechanism is likely:

Hydrophobic effects in non-polar solvents lead to a predominance of the dimer.

Such foams help to extinguish fires in a short time caused by polar and non-polar solvents.

In fact, the Hildebrand parameter for such non-polar solvents is usually close to the Hansen value.

Its stability can be attributed to its insolubility in both polar and non-polar solvents.

Lipophobic compounds are those not soluble in lipids or other non-polar solvents.

On the other hand, non-polar solutes dissolve better in non-polar solvents.

They are widely used as cheap, relatively safe, largely unreactive, and easily evaporated non-polar solvents.

It is readily miscible in most non-polar solvents, methanol, and cold acetic acid.

Another group of solvents are the non-polar solvents (sometimes called organic solvents).

Although it is extremely hydrophobic, this open structure readily absorbs non-polar solvents, greases and oils.

These non-polar solvents are themselves lipophilic - the axiom that like dissolves like generally holds true.

Solubility: Alkynes are soluble in non-polar solvents.

It readily mixes with other polar and non-polar solvents such as water, chloroform, and hexane.

Oxidation-elimination reactions should be carried out in non-polar solvents to avoid polar side reactions, such as the seleno-Pummerer reaction.

Bronopol is poorly soluble in non-polar solvents but shows a high affinity for polar organic solvents.

COC and COP are generally attacked by non-polar solvents, such as toluene.

The hydrophobic effect can be quantified by measuring the partition coefficients of non-polar molecules between water and non-polar solvents.

Aluminium triethoxide is slightly soluble in hot dimethyl benzene, chlorobenzene and other high boiling point non-polar solvents.

Things that will dissolve in polar solvents generally don't dissolve as well in non-polar solvents and vice-versa.

This trigonal bipyramidal structure persists in non-polar solvents, such as CS and CCl.

Hydrophobic molecules tend to be non-polar and, thus, prefer other neutral molecules and non-polar solvents.
