:Dimethyl oxalate
Description:
Dimethyl oxalate is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H10O4, characterized by its ester functional groups. It appears as a colorless, viscous liquid with a slightly sweet odor. This compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water. Dimethyl oxalate is primarily used as a building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of various chemicals, including pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It serves as a methylating agent and is also utilized in the synthesis of oxalic acid derivatives. The compound is known for its relatively low toxicity, but it should still be handled with care due to potential irritant effects on the skin and eyes. Additionally, it can undergo hydrolysis in the presence of water, leading to the formation of oxalic acid and methanol. Overall, dimethyl oxalate is a versatile compound with applications in both industrial and laboratory settings.
