CAS 79-16-3

N-Methylacetamide

Description:

N-Methylacetamide is an organic compound with the molecular formula C3H7NO and a CAS number of 79-16-3. It is classified as an amide, specifically a derivative of acetamide where a methyl group replaces one of the hydrogen atoms. This colorless, viscous liquid is known for its polar nature, which contributes to its solubility in water and various organic solvents. N-Methylacetamide has a relatively high boiling point compared to other simple amides, reflecting its ability to engage in hydrogen bonding. It is commonly used as a solvent in chemical reactions and as an intermediate in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. Additionally, it exhibits low toxicity, making it suitable for various applications in research and industry. However, like many chemical substances, it should be handled with care, following appropriate safety guidelines to minimize exposure. Its unique properties make it valuable in both laboratory and industrial settings.
