Organic Synthesis Raw Materials N,N-Dimethylformamide NMF CAS 68-12-2 Colorless Liquid

Overview of Organic Synthesis Raw Materials N,N-Dimethylformamide NMF CAS 68-12-2 Colorless Liquid

Dimethylformamide is referred to as DMF. It is a compound formed by replacing the hydroxyl group of formic acid with dimethylamine, with the molecular formula HCON(CH3)2. It is a colorless, transparent, high-boiling liquid with a light amine smell and a relative density of 0.9445 (25°C). Melting point -61°C. Boiling point 152.8°C. Flash point 57.78°C. Vapor density 2.51. Vapor pressure 0.49kpa (3.7mmHg25°C). Autoignition point 445°C. The explosion limit of the vapor-air mixture is 2.2-15.2%. It can cause combustion and explosion when exposed to open flames and high heat. It can react violently with concentrated sulfuric acid and fuming nitric acid and even explode. It is miscible with water and most organic solvents. It is a common solvent for chemical reactions. Pure dimethylformamide has no odor, but industrial-grade or deteriorated dimethylformamide has a fishy smell because it contains dimethylamine impurities.

Application of Organic Synthesis Raw Materials N,N-Dimethylformamide NMF CAS 68-12-2 Colorless Liquid

It is an excellent organic solvent, used as a solvent for polyurethane, polyacrylonitrile, and polyvinyl chloride, and is also used as an extractant, a raw material for medicine and the pesticide chlordimeform.
