General Description
Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is a versatile non-toxic biodegradable reagent with tunable chemical reactivity. It serves as a green alternative to dimethyl sulfate or methyl halides and phosgene for methylation and carboxylation reactions.The base-catalyzed reaction between carbon dioxide and methanol to form DMC has been studied.Various thermodynamic parameters of DMC have been reported.
