Application
Dimethyl sulfate is a powerful methylating reagent for the methylation of carboxylic acids, alcohols, phenols, lactams, oximes, hydroxylamines, and hydroperoxides. It can be used as a reagent for the preparation of N-methyl alkyl- and aryl-substituted amines, amides, and quaternary ammonium salts. Dimethyl sulfate is also used in the methylation of sulfur-containing compounds to synthesize sulfides and sulfonium ions.
It can also be used as a reagent:
- For the preparation of quaternary ammonium acrylic monomer as a potent antibacterial agent by the quaternization of 2-dimethylamino ethyl methacrylate.
- Along with dimethyl sulfoxide for the synthesis of epoxides from aldehydes and ketones via formation of trimethylsulfonium cation.
- To prepare an oxygenate additive for diesel by the methylation of glycerol.
