Methylamine hydrochloride

Methylamine hydrochloride (CAS 593-51-1), also sold as monomethylamine hydrochloride, is the stable, solid salt form of methylamine used where the free base gas would be impractical to handle.

Where is Methylamine hydrochloride used?

• Pharmaceutical manufacturing: key building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients, including antivirals, analgesics and CNS compounds
• Agrochemicals: manufacture of herbicides and pesticides
• Biotechnology and life sciences: buffer preparation and reagent in biochemical assays
• Research laboratories: reference standard and synthetic intermediate in small-scale organic synthesis
• It serves as a controlled source of methylamine in synthesis and research, releasing the reactive amine under controlled conditions.

Good to know: Technical and pharmaceutical-grade specifications meet the purity requirements of industrial synthesis and regulated drug manufacturing, with compliance to USP and BP standards.

Commercial specifications

• USP and BP standards
• Packaging from laboratory-scale quantities to bulk industrial supply
• Documentation supports GMP procurement workflows and other regulatory requirements for global distribution
