Diethyl ethoxymethylene malonate is an important organic compound often used as an intermediate in drug synthesis, especially in the manufacture of drugs such as norfloxacin, chloroquine, and romefloxacin. It is a colorless, transparent, viscous liquid, prepared by the condensation of diethyl malonate and triethyl orthoformate to remove ethanol. It is a key raw material in the pharmaceutical and pesticide industries.
