Description
Trimethyl citrate is an ester of citric acid. It is a kind of non-toxic plasticizer1. Trimethyl citrate is one of the constituents of Dioscorea opposita2. The IC50 value for monoamine oxidase-B of trimethyl citrate was studied. It has various applications3: it can do the main flame retardant candle flame color, its melting point and can fully meet the flammability requirements of candle products. It can be used for the synthesis of pharmaceutical and pesticide. It can act as the main raw material for the production of citric acid hydrochloride, citric acid hydrochloride as well as the synthetic hot melt adhesive. It can also be used as the methyl methacrylate polymer a blowing agent, a stabilizer acrylamide, polyamide adhesive initiators, PVC plasticizers. It can also be used as solvent for household and II cleaner, film-former4.

Flammability and Explosibility
Notclassified
Check Digit Verification of cas no
The CAS Registry Mumber 1587-20-8 includes 7 digits separated into 3 groups by hyphens. The first part of the number,starting from the left, has 4 digits, 1,5,8 and 7 respectively; the second part has 2 digits, 2 and 0 respectively.
Calculate Digit Verification of CAS Registry Number 1587-20:
(6*1)+(5*5)+(4*8)+(3*7)+(2*2)+(1*0)=88
88 % 10 = 8
So 1587-20-8 is a valid CAS Registry Number.

A FACILE PREPARATION OF ASYM-MONOMETHYL, SYM-MONOMETHYL AND ASYM-DIMETHYL CITRATE
Hirota, Kazuhiro,Kitagawa, Harukazu,Shimamura, Michiya,Ohmori, Shinji
, p. 191 - 194 (1980)
Asym-monomethyl citrate was prepared by hydrolysis of sym-dimethyl citrate.Sym-monomethyl and sym-dimethyl citrate were prepared by a selective hydrolysis of trimethyl citrate.
A Br?nsted acidic, ionic liquid containing, heteropolyacid functionalized polysiloxane network as a highly selective catalyst for the esterification of dicarboxylic acids
Rajabi, Fatemeh,Wilhelm, Christian,Thiel, Werner R.
supporting information, p. 4438 - 4444 (2020/08/10)
A Br?nsted acidic, ionic liquid containing, heteropolyanion functionalized polysiloxane network was formed by self-condensation of dodecatungstophosphoric acid and a zwitterionic organosilane precursor containing both imidazolinium and sulfonate groups. The resulting hybrid material POS-HPA-IL was investigated as a catalyst for the selective esterification of dicarboxylic acids.
