  3. Sodium methoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_methoxide

    Sodium methoxide is prepared by treating methanol with sodium: 2 Na + 2 CH 3 OH → 2 CH 3 ONa + H 2. The reaction is so exothermic that ignition is possible. The resulting solution, which is colorless, is often used as a source of sodium methoxide, but the pure material can be isolated by evaporation followed by heating to remove residual methanol.

    Methoxymethanol is a chemical compound which is both an ether and an alcohol, a hemiformal. [1] The structural formula can be written as CH 3 OCH 2 OH. It has been discovered in space.

  7. Methyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_group

    In organic chemistry, a methyl group is an alkyl derived from methane, containing one carbon atom bonded to three hydrogen atoms, having chemical formula CH 3 (whereas normal methane has the formula CH 4). In formulas, the group is often abbreviated as Me. This hydrocarbon group occurs in many organic compounds. It is a very stable group in ...

  8. Dimethyl ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_ether

    Dimethyl ether (DME; also known as methoxymethane) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 OCH 3, (sometimes ambiguously simplified to C 2 H 6 O as it is an isomer of ethanol).

  9. Acetone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetone

    Acetone (2-propanone or dimethyl ketone) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO. [22] It is the simplest and smallest ketone (>C=O).It is a colorless, highly volatile, and flammable liquid with a characteristic pungent odour, very reminiscent of the smell of pear drops.
