Uses
It is an important raw material and intermediate used in organic synthesis, pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and dyestuffs. ionic liquid 1,3-dimethylimidazolium dimethylphosphate ([MMIM][DMP]) + water/ethanol/methanol mixtures exhibit properties which render them suitable as candidates for working pairs in industrial applications of absorption heat pumps or chillers.
Uses
1,3-Dimethylimidazolium dimethyl phosphate ([MMIM][DMP]) can be used as a catalyst and a solvent for the preparation of ethyl 2-cyano-3-phenylpropenoate from benzaldehyde and ethyl cyanoacetate via Knoevenagel condensation. It can also be used to produce bioethanol from sugarcane bagasse by enzymatic hydrolysis.
General Description
1,3-Dimethylimidazolium dimethyl phosphate is an imidazolium-based phosphoric ionic liquid that can be prepared by reacting 1-methylimidazole with trimethyl phosphate. The pretreatment of sugarcane bagasse with [MMIM][DMP] yields glucose and xylose via enzymatic saccharification.
