2, 2-Dimethoxypropane
2, 2-Dimethoxypropane is an organic acetal compound identified by its named methoxy substitution.

Product & engineering
Understand the product.
2,2-Dimethoxypropane is an organic compound and an alkylating reagent, which is also named as DMP for short. The chemical formula is C5H12O2 and the molecular formula is (CH3)2C(OCH3)2. It is the acetalisation product of acetone and methanol. 2,2-Dimethoxypropane is an intermediate for the synthesis of 2-methoxypropene. In histology, DMP is now considered to be more efficient than ethanol for the dehydration of animal tissue.
DMP is commonly used as a water scavenger in water-sensitive reactions -- any available water will react with DMP to form acetone and methanol.
Chemical identity, substitution pattern, assay and related impurities define the supplied material. The named chemical category does not establish a finished formulation’s compatibility, end-use approval or performance; those depend on the actual grade and application.
The commercial boundary
