Abstract

Dimethoxyalkanes and dimethyl alkanediyl biscarbonates were synthesized by reactions of diols with dimethyl carbonate in the presence of tungsten and cobalt carbonyls. Optimal reactant and catalyst ratios and reaction conditions were found to ensure selective formation of dimethoxyalkanes or dimethyl alkanediyl biscarbonates.
