Chemical compound
2-Methoxypropene is an ether with the chemical formula C4H8O. It is a reagent used in organic synthesis to introduce a protecting group for alcohols,[1] and the conversion diols to the acetonide group.[3]
2-Methoxypropene can be prepared by the elimination of methanol from dimethoxypropane,[4] or by the addition of methanol to propyne or allene.[5]
