Dimethyl glutarate

Description:
Dimethyl glutarate is an organic compound classified as a diester, specifically a derivative of glutaric acid. It features two methyl ester groups attached to the glutarate backbone, which contributes to its chemical properties. The molecular formula of dimethyl glutarate is C₇H₁₄O₄, and it has a moderate molecular weight. This compound is typically a colorless liquid with a pleasant, fruity odor, making it useful in various applications, including as a solvent and in the synthesis of other chemicals. Dimethyl glutarate is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits low solubility in water. It is known for its relatively low toxicity, but like many esters, it can be irritating to the skin and eyes. In terms of stability, it is generally stable under normal conditions but should be stored away from strong oxidizing agents. Its applications extend to the production of plasticizers, coatings, and as an intermediate in organic synthesis, highlighting its versatility in the chemical industry.
