Does anyone know about the reactivity of metallic sodium with 1,2dimethoxyethane(DME)?

07 July 2013 1 2K Report

I want to know how is the reaction between this two kind of materials (if any reaction between them happens)

Is it safe or dangerous?

Hi Amir. There should be no reaction or incompatibility. DME is an aprotic inert solvent like diethylether or THF. It has already been used as solvent for Na/naphtalene for reduction.
