Product Description:

N-Ethylisopropylamine is a secondary aliphatic amine with the chemical formula C5H13N. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a strong, ammonia-like odor. It is also known as N-ethylpropan-2-amine or N-isopropylethylamine. This compound is primarily used as a versatile organic base and a building block in organic synthesis. Its sterically hindered nature makes it a useful reagent in various chemical transformations, including as a base in deprotonation reactions and in the synthesis of more complex amine derivatives, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals. It can serve as a precursor for the preparation of quaternary ammonium salts or as a ligand in coordination chemistry. N-Ethylisopropylamine is flammable and corrosive. It requires careful handling under inert atmospheres and in well-ventilated areas due to its volatility and potential health hazards upon inhalation or skin contact.
