Methyl formate appears as a clear colorless liquid with an agreeable odor. Flash point -27°F. Less dense than water Vapors heavier than air.|Methyl formate is a formate ester resulting from the formal condensation of formic acid with methanol. A low-boiling (31.5 ℃) colourless, flammable liquid, it has been used as a fumigant and larvicide for tobacco and food crops. It has a role as a polar aprotic solvent, a fumigant, an insecticide and a refrigerant. It is a formate ester, a methyl ester and a volatile organic compound. It derives from a methanol.Basic Info-

Air and Water Reactions:Highly flammable. Water soluble. Reacts slowly with water to give formic acid, a corrosive material, and methanol, a flammable liquid. Both products are dissolved in the water.
Reactive Group:Esters, Sulfate Esters, Phosphate Esters, Thiophosphate Esters, and Borate Esters
Reactivity Alerts:Highly Flammable
Reactivity Profile:METHYL FORMATE reacts with acids to liberate heat along with alcohols and acids. Strong oxidizing acids may cause a vigorous reaction that is sufficiently exothermic to ignite the reaction products. Heat is also generated with caustic solutions. Flammable hydrogen is generated by mixing with alkali metals and hydrides.
