NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is pleased to present high-quality N-Ethylmorpholine, commonly known as Nem. This essential chemical raw material is supplied in a versatile liquid form, playing a pivotal role across various advanced industrial and laboratory applications. Recognized for its unique properties as both a strong base and a tertiary amine, N-Ethylmorpholine offers distinct advantages in chemical synthesis and formulation compared to other commonly used catalysts or solvents.
Our N-Ethylmorpholine boasts stringent technical specifications ensuring peak performance and reliability in demanding applications. Key parameters include a minimum purity of 99.0%, verified through rigorous analytical testing. Moisture content is carefully controlled to less than 0.1%, minimizing unwanted side reactions or degradation. Its appearance is consistently a clear, colorless liquid under standard conditions. Specific identifiers such as CAS No. 100-74-3, Molecular Formula C6H13NO, and Molecular Weight 115.17 g/mol confirm its chemical identity. At 20°C, the density ranges from 0.916 to 0.922 g/cm³, a critical parameter for formulation and handling. It exhibits a low melting point of -63°C and a boiling point of 139°C, indicating its volatility. The flash point (Closed Cup) is 27°C, highlighting the need for appropriate storage and handling precautions in fire-prone environments. Its pH in a 1% aqueous solution is strongly alkaline, approximately 11.5, consistent with its basic nature. N-Ethylmorpholine is highly soluble, being miscible with water, ethanol, acetone, and benzene, which contributes to its versatility as a solvent and reaction medium.
Regarding chemical stability and reactivity, N-Ethylmorpholine is hygroscopic, meaning it readily absorbs moisture from the air, which can affect its concentration and performance if not stored properly. It is incompatible with strong oxidizers, acids, and acid anhydrides, reactions with which can be vigorous and potentially hazardous. Prolonged exposure to air may also cause gradual degradation over time, necessitating storage in sealed containers under inert atmosphere where possible. As a strong base, it acts as a potent catalyst in numerous organic synthesis reactions that require basic conditions, such as esterifications, transesterifications, and condensation reactions. Its reaction with acids is highly exothermic, releasing significant heat, which must be managed in chemical processes.
One of the primary and most significant applications of N-Ethylmorpholine is as a critical polyurethane foaming catalyst. In the complex chemistry of producing rigid and flexible polyurethane foams, Nem is instrumental in precisely balancing the delicate reactions responsible for foam expansion, driven by blowing agents (the "blowing" reaction), and polymer chain formation (the "gelation" reaction). This balanced catalytic activity is essential for achieving a uniform cell structure, excellent dimensional stability of the foam, and desired physical properties such as density and resilience. Its reliability and predictable performance make it a preferred choice in achieving consistent high-quality foam production across different formulations and manufacturing scales.
Beyond polymers, N-Ethylmorpholine serves as a vital pharmaceutical intermediate. Its unique chemical structure, featuring both an amine group and an ether linkage within a morpholine ring, makes it an indispensable building block or reagent in the synthesis pathways of various active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and fine chemicals. This includes its use in creating certain classes of antibiotics, antiviral compounds, and components for advanced drug delivery systems like controlled-release formulations or targeting moieties. The high purity offered by NINGBO INNO PHARMCHEM CO.,LTD. is particularly crucial in pharmaceutical synthesis, where minimal impurities are paramount to ensure downstream product integrity, safety, and efficacy, meeting stringent regulatory requirements.
It is also widely employed as a general alkaline catalyst in organic synthesis. N-Ethylmorpholine can often replace traditional tertiary amines like triethylamine or other inorganic bases in reactions such as esterification, etherification, and condensation reactions. Its catalytic efficiency and specific basicity profile can lead to improved reaction rates, higher yields, and enhanced selectivity in certain transformations. Furthermore, its liquid nature and miscibility properties can sometimes simplify post-reaction work-up procedures, making synthesis processes more streamlined, economical, and potentially more environmentally friendly by reducing solvent usage or purification steps.
As a versatile industrial solvent and component in specialized formulations like paint strippers, N-Ethylmorpholine is effective in dissolving a range of organic materials, including difficult-to-dissolve resins, coatings, inks, and polymers. This property makes it valuable in formulations for surface preparation, cleaning electronic components where residue-free cleaning is essential, and other specialized industrial cleaning applications where a polar, alkaline solvent with moderate volatility is required. Its effectiveness in dissolving various organic matrices makes it a preferred choice in niche solvent applications.
