CAS 462-95-3: Diethoxymethane
Description:Diethoxymethane, with the CAS number 462-95-3, is an organic compound classified as an ether. It is characterized by its molecular structure, which consists of a methylene group (–CH2–) bonded to two ethoxy groups (–O–C2H5). This compound typically appears as a colorless liquid with a mild, sweet odor. Diethoxymethane is known for its low boiling point and moderate solubility in water, making it useful in various chemical applications. It is often employed as a solvent in organic synthesis and can serve as a reagent in the preparation of other chemical compounds. Additionally, diethoxymethane exhibits properties such as flammability and should be handled with care in a well-ventilated environment. Its reactivity can be influenced by the presence of functional groups in other molecules, making it a valuable intermediate in synthetic organic chemistry. As with many ethers, it is important to consider safety data and handling procedures when working with diethoxymethane in laboratory settings.
