Description

Diethyl ethylmalonate is a chemical compound that belongs to the group of polycarboxylic acids. It is primarily used as a solvent for coatings and adhesives, as well as a catalyst in the Friedel-Crafts reaction. Diethyl ethylmalonate has been shown to undergo a number of reactions, often in the presence of chlorine or another halogen atom. This compound reacts with malonic acid to form diethyl succinate, which can be hydrolyzed by water to form carbon dioxide and ethanol. Diethyl ethylmalonate also binds to receptors on cells, which may be related to its viscosity. The reactivity of this compound can be controlled by varying the particle size.
