Dimethyl oxalate can be converted into ethylene glycol in high yields (94.7%) [10] [11] The methanol formed is recycled in the process of oxidative carbonylation. [12] Other plants with a total annual capacity of more than 1 million tons of ethylene glycol per year are planned. Decarbonylation gives dimethyl carbonate. [13]
Synthesis of acrylic acid using "Reppe chemistry"; a metal catalyst is required. The carbomethoxylation of ethylene to give methyl propionate: C 2 H 4 + CO + MeOH → MeO 2 CC 2 H 5. Methyl propionate ester is a precursor to methyl methacrylate. [10] Hydroesterification is like hydrocarboxylation, but it uses alcohols in place of water. [11]
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.
Another process uses oxygen to regenerate the nitric acid, using a variety of precursors including glycolic acid and ethylene glycol. [17] As of 2011, this process was only used by Mitsubishi in Japan. [18] A newer method entails oxidative carbonylation of alcohols to give the diesters of oxalic acid: 4 ROH + 4 CO + O 2 → 2 (CO 2 R) 2 + 2 H 2 O

Ytterbium(III) oxalate is the oxalate of ytterbium, with the chemical formula Yb 2 ... (III) chloride and a benzene solution of dimethyl oxalate. [1] Properties
A man is lucky to be alive after walking naked for 25 miles in rain and near freezing temperatures from the Oregon border to near the Tri-Cities, say officials.
