Description

Bis(2-Methylbutyl)Amine is a branched-chain aliphatic amine with the CAS number 27094-65-1. This specialty chemical serves as a versatile intermediate and building block in the synthesis of more complex molecules, valued for its unique steric and electronic properties derived from its branched alkyl groups. It is primarily sought by manufacturers in the agrochemical, pharmaceutical, and specialty polymer industries for applications requiring specific amine functionality.

Application

• Agrochemical Intermediate: A key building block in the synthesis of advanced herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators.
• Pharmaceutical Synthesis: Used as a precursor or intermediate in the creation of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), particularly those requiring chiral or sterically hindered amine centers.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Formulation: Incorporated into formulations for metalworking fluids and industrial coatings to provide protective properties.
• Polymer & Resin Modifier: Acts as a curing agent, chain extender, or modifier in epoxy, polyurethane, and other specialty polymer systems to alter flexibility and chemical resistance.
• Surfactant & Emulsifier Production: Serves as a raw material for manufacturing cationic surfactants used in various industrial and cleaning applications.
• Chemical Research & Development: Employed in organic synthesis and catalysis research as a ligand or reagent due to its specific structural features.

Quality Control

Our Bis(2-Methylbutyl)Amine is manufactured under strict quality management protocols. Each batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including gas chromatography (GC) for purity and identity confirmation, to ensure it meets exacting standards for industrial and research use. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all specifications is provided with every shipment to guarantee traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area away from heat sources and incompatible materials. Due to its nature as an easily oxidized amine, it is recommended to store under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) for long-term stability. Keep container tightly sealed when not in use to minimize moisture uptake and oxidation.
