ethylene glycol dimethyl ether

1. Diethylene glycol dimethyl ether also known as Diglyme, is an aprotic polar solvent, which can be used in polar organic reactions, anionic polymerization and coordination ion polymerization. It can be used as a reaction solvent for reductive alkylation, chemicalbook and condensation. It can also be used as a medium for Grignard and similar synthesis. It can also be used as a pollution-free cleaning agent, extractant, diluent, pharmaceutical auxiliary and resin solvent.

Dimethoxyethane, also known as glyme, monoglyme, dimethyl glycol, ethylene glycol dimethyl ether, dimethyl cellosolve, and DME, is a colorless, aprotic, and liquid ether that is used as a solvent, especially in batteries. Dimethoxyethane is miscible with water. It is mainly used in the fields of polymer chemistry, electrochemistry and boron chemistry. It is also used as a solvent for resin, nitrocellulose, pharmaceutical extractant and organic synthesis intermediate.
