When burned, dimethyl ether can produce toxic gases such as carbon monoxide and formaldehyde. Inhalation of these gases can be harmful to health, causing respiratory irritation and other adverse effects. It is important to handle and burn dimethyl ether in a well-ventilated area to minimize exposure to these toxic byproducts.
