Reaction of propylene carbonate with methanol
Thread Content
Do propylene carbonate and methanol react under normal temperature and pressure? If propylene carbonate reacts with methanol, is this reaction reversible? Does the presence of a small amount of methanol mixed in with propylene carbonate affect its ability to absorb carbon dioxide?

How can alcohols and esters react? Of course, there are no reversible reactions either. Both propylene carbonate and methanol are good solvents for absorbing CO2; a small amount of methanol mixed in with propylene carbonate should have little effect on carbon dioxide absorption (much less of an impact than water).
