Problems solved by technology

[0013] In the prior art, the main problem in the synthesis of dimethyl maleate from maleic anhydride or maleic acid and methanol is that in the second step, the diesterification reaction between monomethyl maleate and methanol generates In the process of dimethyl maleate, because the reaction of monomethyl maleate and methanol is an equilibrium reversible reaction, and the by-product water in the reaction process, the prior art adopts methanol evaporation to take out water to achieve the effect of water removal. The purpose is very difficult, it is difficult to effectively remove the water of by-product in the reaction, so the reaction of monomethyl maleate is difficult to carry out thoroughly, the reaction conversion rate is low, the process reaction rate is slow, and the diesterification reaction product maleic acid di The selectivity and yield of methyl esters are reduced, and dimethyl maleate forms an azeotrope with water, which leads to difficulties in the separation and purification of materials after the diesterification reaction, and the product has low purity and poor quality
