| Trimethoxymethane Usage And Synthesis |
Description | Trimethyl orthoformate is an effective solvent for thallium(III) nitrate-mediated oxidations. It undergoes acid catalyzed reaction with 6-(N-D-ribitylanilino) uracils to form 8-demethyl-8-hydroxy-5-deazariboflavins. | Chemical Properties | Colorless liquid. Slightly soluble in water, miscible with alcohol and oils. Very diffusive, ethereal, pungent or nauseating odor, pleasant in dilution, slightly wineyfruity, Brandy-like. Sweet taste in concentrations below 100 ppm.
Barely perceptible at 10 ppm. | Uses | Trimethyl Orthoformate is the most simple orthoester. Used in organic synthesis as a reagent for introducing a protecting group for aldehydes and in the creation of methoxymethylene groups and heterocyclic ring systems. | Uses | Trimethyl orthoformate is used as a protecting group for aldehydes in organic synthesis, as an additive in polyurethane coatings and as a dehydrating agent in the preparation of surface modified colloidal silica nanoparticles. It is also used as a chemical intermediate in the preparation of vitamin B1 and sulfa drugs. It acts as an effective solvent for thallium(III) nitrate-mediated oxidations. Furthermore. It is utilized for the synthesis of chromone from keto-hydroxy naphthol in the presence of trimethylamine. | Uses | Trimethyl orthoformate can be used:
- To convert sulfonic acids to methyl esters.
- To convert 2-acylcyclohexanones to the corresponding acetal derivatives.
- To mediate Pinacol reaction of various 1,2-diols with tin(IV) chloride without the formation of water.
- To synthesize 1-substituted-1H-1,2,3,4-tetrazoles via a three-component condensation with amine and sodium azide catalyzed by indium triflate under solvent-free conditions.
- For the N-methylation of amines in the presence of sulfuric acid.
| Application | Trimethyl orthoformate was used as dehydrating agent in the preparation of surface-modified colloidal silica nanoparticles. MOM protection of Diols using Trimethyl Orthoformate N-Formylation of Amino Acid Esters | General Description | Trimethyl orthoformate is an effective solvent for thallium(III) nitrate-mediated oxidations. It undergoes acid catalyzed reaction with 6-(N-D-ribitylanilino) uracils to form 8-demethyl-8-hydroxy-5-deazariboflavins. | Flammability and Explosibility | Highly flammable | Safety Profile | A skin and eye irritant.
A very dangerous fire hazard when exposed
to heat or flame; can react with oxidizing
materials. Hazardous to prepare. To fight
fire, use CO2, fog, haze. When heated to
decomposition it emits acrid smoke and
irritating fumes. See also ESTERS. | Synthesis | Trimethyl orthoformate is prepared on an industrial scale by the methanolysis of hydrogen cyanide: HCN + 3 HOCH3 → HC(OCH3)3 + NH3 Trimethyl orthoformate can also be prepared from the reaction between chloroform and sodium methoxide, an example of the Williamson ether synthesis. | Precautions | Moisture sensitive. Keep the container tightly closed in a dry and well-ventilated place. Incompatible with acids and strong oxidizing agents. | References | Protection for the Hydroxyl Group, Including 1,2- and 1,3-Diols P. G. M.
