Description
N-Ethylpropylamine (CAS 20193-20-8, EC 243-573-4) is a short-chain secondary aliphatic amine with the molecular formula C5H13N, also referred to as ethylpropylamine, propylethylamine, and N-ethylpropanamine. It carries no assigned E-code and is classified under HS code 2921.19.6190.
In pharmaceutical synthesis, N-ethylpropylamine functions as a pH regulator and buffering agent, controlling reaction conditions during active ingredient manufacturing. In polymer chemistry, it acts as a polymerization initiator, activating chain reactions in resin and plastic production. It also serves as a solvent and carrier in agrochemical formulations, improving solubility and delivery of active compounds.
N-Ethylpropylamine is supplied as a liquid and is subject to REACH registration requirements within the European Union. Procurement teams should confirm supplier compliance documentation, including Safety Data Sheets aligned with EU GHS standards. Packaging formats and available grades should be confirmed directly with the supplier.
