Dehydration agent in organic synthesis often result in the conversion of the reacting molecule from one type of compound to another, such as the conversion of alcohols to alkenes. In medicine, dehydrating agents are used to clean and mount tissue slides to look at under a microscope. Common dehydrating agents for this use include ethanol, butanol and isopropanol.
