描述
Methylether, also known as dme or methoxymethane, is a member of the class of compounds known as dialkyl ethers. Dialkyl ethers are organic compounds containing the dialkyl ether functional group, with the formula ROR', where R and R' are alkyl groups. Methylether is soluble (in water) and an extremely weak basic (essentially neutral) compound (based on its pKa). Methylether can be found in rosemary, which makes methylether a potential biomarker for the consumption of this food product.
