Description

Dimethylmalonate is a labile organometallic compound that serves as a precursor to various metal complexes. Dimethylmalonate is an alkylating agent, which reacts with hydroxyl groups of OH-containing molecules to form methylene bridges. This type of reaction is catalyzed by copper chromite in the presence of methyl groups and active methylene. Dimethylmalonate has been shown to react with amines and quaternary ammonium salts to form cyclic compounds. The cyclic compounds are often labile due to their high degree of unsaturation. Dimethylmalonate also reacts with sodium salt in the presence of hydroxy groups, forming the sodium salt of 4-(dimethylamino)butan-2-one, which can be used for the synthesis of other organic compounds.
