N-dodecylformamide

Description:
N-dodecylformamide, with the CAS number 7402-57-5, is an organic compound characterized by its long hydrophobic dodecyl chain and a polar formamide functional group. This structure imparts both hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties, making it amphiphilic. It typically appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid and has a relatively high boiling point due to the presence of the formamide group, which can engage in hydrogen bonding. N-dodecylformamide is soluble in organic solvents and exhibits limited solubility in water, reflecting its dual nature. It is often used as a surfactant, emulsifier, or in various chemical synthesis processes. Additionally, its properties make it suitable for applications in the formulation of detergents, cosmetics, and pharmaceuticals. Safety considerations should be taken into account, as with many organic compounds, including potential skin and eye irritation. Proper handling and storage conditions are essential to ensure safety and stability.
