Can anyone tell me where I can find the reaction conditions for the
hydrolysis of dimethyl ether?
CH3OCH3 + H2O <-> 2 CH3OH
Dimethyl ether doesn't hydrolyze. You would need strong aqueous acid,
high temps, and a long wait. Note that dimethyl ether is a gas at
ambient conditions. Run it through ZSM-5 and make high aromatics
gasoline.
