| introduction | diethoxymethane (DEM) has only begun to be commercialized in recent years, but it has attracted the attention of researchers due to its unique properties. Its typical properties are: suitable operating temperature range; low viscosity, easy to operate and handle; DEM has low solubility in water and water in DEM ; it forms binary azeotrope with water and ethanol respectively, which is beneficial to product purification; it is not mixed with water, easy to separate from water, and has good process economy; it has good stability, it is stable under strong alkali and weak acidic conditions such as hydroxide, sodium hydride, Grignard reagent, etc., and it is not easy to form peroxides. |
| Uses | Used in organic synthesis and pharmaceutical industry Used in the synthesis of toluene formaldehyde resin, spices, and also used in the production of solvents and paints. |
| production method | production of chloramphenicol by-products. p-nitroacetophenone is dissolved in chlorobenzene, stirred at 26-28 ℃ and bromine is added dropwise to brominate to obtain p-nitro-α-brominated acetophenone. Then urotropine was added and chlorobenzene was supplemented to prepare p-nitro-α-bromoacetophenone urotropine salt solution. The salt-forming solution is added to the hydrochloric acid solution of the 27%, and after the chlorobenzene is separated, ethanol and salt are added for hydrolysis reaction. It can also be prepared by the condensation reaction of formaldehyde and ethanol. |
