What is CAS 616-38-6 DMC reagent?

DMC Reagent refers to Dimethyl Carbonate (DMC) when it is specifically used as a reactive chemical in organic synthesis, rather than just as a solvent. Its value as a reagent lies in its ability to safely transfer methyl (–CH₃) groups or carbonyl (C=O) groups to other molecules.

 

CAS 616-38-6 Dimethyl carbonate (DMC) is a colourless, fast-evaporating, mild, non-offensive-odour, VOC-exempt solvent with a wide range of applications. It is used in the manufacture of lithium-ion batteries and in the production of polycarbonates, lubricants, polyurethanes and cleaning and degreasing solvents. DMC solvent is also used in construction materials, such as paints and adhesives, as well as in fuel additives and biodiesel production.

Dimethyl Carbonate DMC Green Advantage:

DMC is celebrated as a "green reagent" because it replaces highly toxic and hazardous chemicals traditionally used for methylation and carbonylation, such as:

  • Dimethyl sulfate (toxic, carcinogenic)
  • Methyl halides (e.g., CH₃I, toxic and ozone-depleting)
  • Phosgene (extremely toxic gas)
