Properties and stability

1. Methyl ether has methylation reaction properties. Reacts with carbon monoxide to generate acetic acid or methyl acetate; reacts with carbon dioxide to generate methoxyacetic acid; reacts with hydrogen cyanide to generate acetonitrile. Can be chlorinated into various chlorinated derivatives. Can form explosive mixtures with air.

2. Stability[19] Stable

3. Incompatible substances[20] Strong oxidants, strong acids, halogens, sulfur, sulfides

4. Conditions to avoid contact [21] Contact Air, light

5. Aggregation hazard[22] No aggregation

Storage method

Storage Precautions[23] Store in a cool, ventilated warehouse dedicated to flammable gases. Keep away from fire and heat sources. The storage temperature should not exceed 30℃. They should be stored separately from oxidants, acids, and halogens, and avoid mixed storage. Use explosion-proof lighting and ventilation facilities. It is prohibited to use mechanical equipment and tools that are prone to sparks. The storage area should be equipped with leakage emergency response equipment.

Synthesis method

1. It is mainly obtained as a by-product in the production of synthetic methanol. However, with the widespread application of low-pressure methanol technology based on copper-based catalysts, the content of dimethyl ether in the crude methanol product is very small. In small-scale production, methanol catalytic dehydration method can be used, including liquid phase method and gas phase method. The liquid phase method is to heat a mixture of methanol and sulfuric acid to obtain dimethyl ether. The gas phase method is to pass methanol vapor through a solid catalyst of alumina or crystalline aluminum silicate (ZSM-5 molecular sieve can also be used), and dehydrate the gas phase to generate dimethyl ether. In the laboratory, it can be obtained from the decomposition of trimethyl orthoformate using ferric chloride as a catalyst (yield 95%). High-purity methyl ether can be produced by Williamson synthesis from methyl iodide and sodium methoxide.

Purpose

1. Mainly used as a methylating agent to produce dimethyl sulfate, and can also be used to synthesize N,N-dimethylaniline, methyl acetate, acetic anhydride, ethylene dimethyl ester and ethylene, etc.; it can also be used Used as a substitute for alkylating agents, refrigerants, foaming agents, solvents, leaching agents, extraction agents, anesthetics, fuels, civil compound ethanol and Freon aerosols. Used in hair care, skin care, pharmaceuticals and coatings as various aerosol propellants. Fuel additives promoted abroad have many unique uses in the pharmaceutical, dye, and pesticide industries.

2. It is widely used in pharmaceutical, dye, pesticide and other industries to produce dimethyl sulfate, methyl acetate, ethylene, etc. It can also be used as aerosol propellant or refrigerant. High concentrations of methyl ether can also be used as an anesthetic.

3. Used as refrigerants, solvents, extractants, catalysts and stabilizers for polymers. [24]
