Dimethyl oxalate is an organic compound with the formula (CO 2 CH 3) 2 or (CH 3) 2 C 2 O 4. It is the dimethyl ester of oxalic acid . Dimethyl oxalate is a colorless or white solid that is soluble in water.
o-Phenylenediamine (OPD) is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 (NH 2) 2. This aromatic diamine is an important precursor to many heterocyclic compounds. OPD is a white compound although samples appear darker owing to oxidation by air. It is isomeric with m-phenylenediamine and p-phenylenediamine.
Oxalate (systematic IUPAC name: ethanedioate) is an anion with the chemical formula C 2 O 2− 4. This dianion is colorless. It occurs naturally, including in some foods. It forms a variety of salts, for example sodium oxalate (Na 2 C 2 O 4), and several esters such as dimethyl oxalate ((CH 3) 2 C 2 O 4). It is a conjugate base of oxalic acid.
DMA was first reported in 1850 by the German chemist A. W. Hofmann, who prepared it by heating aniline and iodomethane: [3] [4] C 6 H 5 NH 2 + 2 CH 3 I → C 6 H 5 N(CH 3) 2 + 2 HI. DMA is produced industrially by alkylation of aniline with methanol in the presence of an acid catalyst: [5] C 6 H 5 NH 2 + 2 CH 3 OH → C 6 H 5 N(CH 3) 2 + 2 H 2 O
Dimethyl-4-phenylenediamine can be converted to methylene blue by reaction with dimethylaniline and sodium thiosulfate in several steps: [3] It is used as accelerator for the vulcanization of rubber, being first converted to the corresponding mercaptobenzothiazole.
Oxidative carbonylation is a class of reactions that use carbon monoxide in combination with an oxidant to generate esters and carbonate esters.These transformations utilize transition metal complexes as homogeneous catalysts. [1]

Of the volatile by-products, dimethyl sulfide has a strong, pervasive odour and carbon monoxide is acutely toxic, so the reaction and the work-up needs to be performed in a fume hood. Dimethyl sulfide is a volatile liquid (B.P. 37 °C) with an unpleasant odour at even low concentrations. [8] [9] [10]
