Description

2-[(2-Hydroxyethyl)Amino]Ethyl Acetate is a versatile amino alcohol ester with bifunctional reactivity, making it a valuable intermediate in advanced organic synthesis. This compound is particularly significant for its ability to introduce both hydroxyl and amino functionalities, enabling the creation of specialized polymers and surface-active agents. It is primarily sought after by manufacturers in the pharmaceutical, agrochemical, and specialty polymer industries for the development of performance chemicals and active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs).

Application

• Pharmaceutical Intermediate: Key building block in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and prodrugs, particularly those requiring ethanolamine-derived side chains.
• Polymer & Resin Modifier: Used as a monomer or cross-linking agent in the production of polyurethanes, epoxy curing agents, and other specialty polymers to impart flexibility and adhesion.
• Surfactant & Emulsifier Synthesis: Serves as a precursor for manufacturing non-ionic surfactants and emulsifiers used in personal care products and industrial formulations.
• Agrochemical Synthesis: Intermediate in the production of herbicides, fungicides, and plant growth regulators that benefit from its amino-alcohol structure.
• Corrosion Inhibitor Formulation: Incorporated into coatings and fluids as a component that provides protective film-forming properties on metal surfaces.
• Gas Treating Agent: Utilized in formulations for acid gas (e.g., CO2, H2S) scrubbing solutions in natural gas processing and refining.

Quality Control

Our 2-[(2-Hydroxyethyl)Amino]Ethyl Acetate is produced under a strict quality management system. Every batch undergoes comprehensive analytical testing, including assay by GC/HPLC, identification by FT-IR, and control of key impurities and water content. A Certificate of Analysis (COA) detailing all test results is provided with each shipment to ensure full traceability and compliance with your specifications.

Storage

Preserve in a tightly closed container, protected from light. Store in a cool, dry, and well-ventilated area at a controlled room temperature (15-25°C). This product is hygroscopic (moisture-sensitive) and should be kept under an inert atmosphere (e.g., nitrogen) after opening to prevent degradation. Keep away from strong bases and incompatible materials.
