General Description

1,2-dimethoxyethylene is a chemical compound with the molecular formula C4H8O2. It is also known by its systematic name ethylene glycol dimethyl ether. This colorless, flammable liquid is commonly used as a solvent in chemical reactions and as a starting material in the synthesis of other organic compounds. It has a low boiling point and is highly reactive due to the electron-donating nature of its methoxy groups. 1,2-dimethoxyethylene is also used as a precursor in the production of pharmaceuticals and as a component in the formulation of adhesives, coatings, and specialty chemicals. It should be handled with caution due to its flammability and potential for harmful effects if inhaled or ingested.
