Purpose

1. In the pharmaceutical industry, it is used in the production of vitamin B1, vitamin A, sulfadiazine, pipemidic acid and antibacterial agents. Among them, methyl orthoformate accounts for the largest proportion of vitamin B1 consumption. Also used in the dye and fragrance industry. In coatings, it is used as a dehydrating agent to prevent polyurethane or epoxy coatings from hardening due to hydration.

2. Used as an intermediate in the production of vitamin B1, sulfonamide drugs, antibiotics and other drugs, as a raw material for spices and pesticides and as an additive for polyurethane coatings.

3. Trimethyl orthoformate is a commonly used alkylating reagent and formylating reagent in chemical laboratories. They are easy to store but highly reactive. They can be used as alkylating reagents and can easily transfer alkyl groups to various alcohol hydroxyl groups; when used as formylating reagents, they can be used under acidic or alkaline conditions.

Alkylation reaction with alcohol When trimethyl orthoformate is used as an alkylation reagent, it can cause corresponding alkylation reactions of various alcohols. Alkylation reaction of polyols can occur to generate the corresponding cyclic orthoformate (Formula 1)[1~3].

Aldehydes or ketones Protection Orthoformate can be used to protect aldehydes and ketones to generate formate and the corresponding acetal or ketal (formula 2)[4,5].

Formylation reaction Under the catalysis of Lewis acid, orthoformate can be used as a formylation reagent. Compared with other formylation reagents, it has the characteristics of easy operation and higher yield. Under acid catalysis, orthoformate can easily generate dialkoxy carbonium ions in situ and can be directly used in the formylation reaction. This type of formylation reaction can be on the α-C ortho to the carbonyl group (Formula 3)[6].

With enol ( or analogues) reaction The silyl ether of enol (formula 4)[7] or the enolate of ketone (formula 5) [8] can be reacted with The carbonium ion generated in situ by orthoformate reacts to generateβ-acetal ketone compounds.
