Very rough cut of the upcoming video on making dimethyl dioxane. I'm still adding in equations and graphics but you should get the idea. 

Let me know if there are any additions/improvements you'd like to see.

Make sodium metal first. 🤔 Check. Is the reason this may form peroxide because dimethyl dioxane is "an ether"?

I'm often brought back by these situations to the bottle of ether that was stored in a science classroom where I attended several classes. It was kept there to anesthetize, or, I remember the prof saying, "now we will 'etherize' the tiny fruit flies taking care not to kill the little darlings." That bottle was on the shelf, at least two years, and the room was often hit by the sun (though I don't know if the bottle was ever in direct sunlight). Scary.

Yes! that's part of it. it also has that ether connected to a secondary carbon, this is rather susceptible to peroxide formation. One of the most notorious peroxide formers is diisopropyl ether. Labs have been known to go up like dynamite because of it, (and use has been discontinued by most labs for this reason).
