Diethylformamide

Description:
Diethylformamide (DEF) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C5H11NO. It is a colorless to pale yellow liquid that is hygroscopic and has a characteristic amine-like odor. DEF is classified as a polar aprotic solvent, making it effective for dissolving a wide range of organic and inorganic compounds. Its high boiling point and moderate viscosity contribute to its utility in various chemical reactions, particularly in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Diethylformamide is known for its ability to stabilize reactive intermediates and facilitate nucleophilic substitutions. However, it is important to handle DEF with care, as it can be harmful if inhaled or absorbed through the skin, and it may cause irritation to the eyes and respiratory tract. Proper safety measures, including the use of personal protective equipment, are essential when working with this substance. Additionally, DEF is subject to regulations regarding its use and disposal due to its potential environmental impact.
