Also known as potassium methylate or potassium methanolate, potassium methoxide is the potassium salt of methanol. It is found in different amounts and reacts with water similarly to white crystalline odorless salt. Usually, a solution of 25% to 35% potassium methylate in ethanol or methanol is used to store and transport the chemical. Potassium methoxide is used in agricultural and pharmaceutical synthesis as an intermediate and catalyst. Further uses for potassium methoxide include the synthesis of detergents and glycerol. It also functions as a catalyst in processes involving polymerization and isomerization.
