Description

N-Ethylisopropylamine (CAS 19961-27-4) is a secondary aliphatic amine used as a reactive intermediate and process chemical across pharmaceutical synthesis, agrochemical manufacturing, and polymer chemistry.

It functions primarily as a non-nucleophilic base, pH buffer, and initiator in controlled chemical processes. In pharmaceutical manufacturing, it acts as a base catalyst in multi-step synthesis routes.

This chemical is essential where selectivity is critical and competing nucleophilic reactions must be suppressed. Agrochemical producers use it as a building block in the synthesis of active ingredients.

It is particularly useful where secondary amine functionality is required in the final molecule. In polymer chemistry, it supports polymerization initiation and chain-growth control for specialty resins.

The compound also serves as a carrier solvent and pH-adjusting agent in formulation development. Precise basicity control determines product stability and performance in these industrial applications.

N-Ethylisopropylamine is supplied as a liquid in standard drum and IBC quantities suited to industrial-scale consumption. It is available primarily in technical and reagent grades for various uses.

Purity specifications typically range from 97% to 99% or higher depending on the batch. Buyers should confirm grade suitability against their specific synthesis or formulation requirements before purchase.

Purity tolerance varies significantly between pharmaceutical and industrial applications. Our logistics network ensures reliable delivery of this intermediate to meet your manufacturing timelines and goals.
