General
- Dimethyl carbonate,
often abbreviated DMC, is a flammable clear liquid boiling at 90 °C,
insoluble in water.
- Dimethyl carbonate is a
synthetic organic chemical used as an intermediate in the production of
insecticides for fruit trees and vegetables and, more generally, as a
solvent and an intermediate in other synthesis.
- Its main benefit over
other methylating reagents such as iodomethane and dimethyl sulfate is its
lesser toxicity and its biodegradability.
Process
- Dimethyl carbonate
was usually produced from methanol and phosgene in a concentrated sodium
hydroxide solution.
- The
transesterification process is one of the dimethyl carbonate production
processes. In this process, ethylene carbonate with methanol is
transesterificated to dimethyl carbonate.
Uses
- Dimethyl carbonate
is a useful methylation and carbonylation agent.
- Dimethyl carbonate
is very attractive as for use as an oxygenate for fuel additives.
- Dimethyl carbonate
has strong growth potential as a phosgene replacement in some
applications and as a highoxygen high-octane fuel additive.
Report
- Enichem has
commercialized a continuous solution slurry-phase process for
preparation of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) via the copper catalyzed
oxidative carbonylation of methanol. In past years, the capacity of
this plant is 22 million pounds/year with worldwide demand
approximately half of this amount. Recently in Japan Ube industries
has completed construction of a semi commercial plant with a
capacity of 11-22 million pounds per year.
- Recently,
dimethyl carbonate has attracted worldwide attention as an
environmentally compatible chemical.
