Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing chemical raw materials, in particular to a method for preparing methyl glycolate and producing methyl methoxyacetate by-product. Background technique
[0002] Methyl glycolate (HOCH 2 COOCH 3 ), abbreviated as MG, is a colorless liquid with a pleasant smell, with a melting point of 74°C, a boiling point of 150°C, and a density of 1.168g / cm 3 , soluble in water, and soluble in alcohol and ether in any proportion. Methyl glycolate has α-H, hydroxyl and ester functional groups, so it has both the chemical properties of alcohols and esters, and can undergo carbonylation reactions, hydrolysis reactions, ammoniation reactions, oxidation reactions, etc. Methyl glycolate itself is an excellent solvent for many celluloses, resins and rubbers, and is easily soluble in nitrocellulose, cellulose acetate, polyvinyl acetate, etc. Methyl glycolate is also an important intermediate in organic synthesis and pharmaceut...
