N1,N1-Diethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propanediamine

Description:

N1,N1-Diethyl-2-methyl-1,3-propanediamine is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes two ethyl groups and a methyl group attached to a propanediamine backbone. This compound features two primary amine functional groups, which contribute to its basicity and reactivity. It is typically a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinct amine odor. The presence of the amine groups allows it to engage in hydrogen bonding, influencing its solubility in polar solvents such as water and alcohols. Additionally, the compound may exhibit moderate volatility and can be sensitive to moisture. Its applications may include use as a building block in organic synthesis, particularly in the production of surfactants, pharmaceuticals, or agrochemicals.
