clear colorless to light yellow liquid | [Preparation]
Isosorbide dimethyl ether is synthesized from isosorbide by methylation.
Isosorbide dimethyl ether is obtained from stock like D-sorbitol, which is mainly derived from the hydrogenation of D-glucose.
Isosorbide dimethyl has a low level of toxicity and is referred to as a green solvent due to its production from renewable/raw material.
The boiling point of this solvent is high.
lt is used as a substitute to dimethyl sulfoxide,and dimethylformamide-like solvents. | [General Description]
