Description and Uses

Diethyl malonate is a diester derivative of malonic acid, a dicarboxylic acid with two carboxyl groups (-COO-) separated by one methylene group (-CH2-). Diethyl malonate is formed by the replacement of the hydroxyl groups (-OH) of malonic acid with ethoxy groups (-OCH2CH3). The hydrogen atoms on the methylene carbon between the two carboxyl groups make this compound acidic. Because of its unique structure, diethyl malonate is reactive and functions as a reagent for organic synthesis and to make products such as barbiturates, pigments, and agrochemicals. Volatile esters are known to have fruity scents and are often used as fragrances and flavorings. Diethyl malonate is a volatile diester that occurs naturally in fruits such as grapes, strawberries, guava, melon, pineapple, and blackberries.

Diethyl Malonate occurs naturally in grapes and strawberries. It is used in the preparation of barbiturates, artificial flavourings, vitamin B1, and vitamin B6 as well as in perfumes.
