Abstract
Diethoxymethane is an innovative and green solvent which has several unique properties. These properties include low water solubility, a binary azeotrope with water, a relatively high boiling point, and low freezing point. The solvent is stable to a wide pH range and temperature and is resistant to peroxide formation upon exposure to air. These properties make diethoxymethane a solvent worth considering when evaluating organometallic reactions.
