Product Overview

2-Diethylaminoethanol (99% synthesis grade) is a high-purity tertiary amine alcohol widely used in organic synthesis and laboratory applications. This colorless to pale yellow liquid offers excellent solubility in water and organic solvents, making it a versatile reagent for esterification, condensation reactions, and as a pH regulator. Its low moisture content (<0.1%) ensures consistent performance in sensitive applications, while the 99% purity minimizes side reactions. The compound's dual functionality—both amine and alcohol groups—enables its use as a building block in pharmaceutical intermediates, corrosion inhibitors, and specialty chemicals. Packaged in amber glass bottles to prevent photodegradation, this synthesis-grade 2-Diethylaminoethanol maintains stability during storage and handling. The 500 ml and 2500 ml pack sizes cater to both small-scale experiments and bulk requirements, with each batch tested for heavy metals and residual solvents to meet strict laboratory standards.

FAQs

1. What is the boiling point of this 2-Diethylaminoethanol 99%?

The boiling point is approximately 162°C at standard pressure, though slight variations may occur based on atmospheric conditions.

2. Can this be used as a substitute for triethylamine in reactions?

While both are tertiary amines, 2-Diethylaminoethanol has an additional hydroxyl group that alters its reactivity and solubility profile, so direct substitution may require protocol adjustments.

3. What is the typical shelf life when stored unopened?

When stored in its original amber glass container at room temperature, the product remains stable for 24 months from the date of manufacture.

4. Does this grade contain any stabilizers or additives?

This synthesis-grade product is free from added stabilizers or preservatives, containing only the declared 2-Diethylaminoethanol at 99% purity.

5. How should I dispose of unused or expired material?

Follow local chemical waste disposal regulations; this compound should be treated as hazardous waste and incinerated in approved facilities due to its amine content.
