Ethanolamine

Description:
Ethanolamine, with the CAS number 141-43-5, is an organic compound that serves as both an amine and an alcohol. It is a colorless, viscous liquid with a faint ammonia-like odor. Ethanolamine is hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air, and it is soluble in water, alcohol, and ether. This compound has a molecular formula of C2H7NO and features a primary amine group (-NH2) and a hydroxyl group (-OH), which contribute to its reactivity and versatility in various chemical reactions. Ethanolamine is commonly used in the production of surfactants, emulsifiers, and corrosion inhibitors, as well as in pharmaceuticals and personal care products. It can also act as a pH adjuster and is utilized in the synthesis of various chemicals. Due to its amine nature, ethanolamine can participate in nucleophilic reactions, making it valuable in organic synthesis. However, it should be handled with care, as it can be irritating to the skin, eyes, and respiratory system.
