CAS 93-61-8

N-Methylformanilide

Description:

N-Methylformanilide, with the CAS number 93-61-8, is an organic compound characterized by its structure, which includes a methyl group attached to the nitrogen of an aniline derivative and a formyl group. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a distinctive aromatic odor. This compound is soluble in organic solvents such as ethanol and ether but has limited solubility in water. N-Methylformanilide is primarily used as an intermediate in the synthesis of various pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. It exhibits properties typical of amides, including the ability to participate in hydrogen bonding, which influences its reactivity and interactions with other chemical species. Additionally, it has a moderate boiling point and a relatively low vapor pressure, indicating that it can be handled safely under standard laboratory conditions. As with many organic compounds, proper safety precautions should be taken when handling N-Methylformanilide, as it may pose health risks if inhaled or ingested.
