Product Description
N-methylformamide is an important organic chemical raw material and intermediate, and an organic solvent with good performance. It is used for the synthesis of high efficiency and low toxicity monometamine, bimetamine, etc. It can be used as reaction solvent and refining solvent for organic synthesis. It is also widely used in medicine, dyestuff, perfume, electrolysis and electroplating industry.
N-Methylformamide (NMF) is a colorless, nearly odorless, organic compound with molecular formula CH3NHCHO, which is a liquid at room temperature. It is infinitely soluble in water. NMF is mainly used as a reagent in various organic syntheses with limited applications as a highly polar solvent.
NMF is closely related to other formamides, notably formamide and dimethylformamide (DMF). However, industrial use and production of NMF are far less than for either of these other formamides. DMF is favored over NMF as a solvent due to its greater stability. Annual production of NMF can be assumed to be significantly less than the production of either formamide (100,000 tons) or DMF (500,000 tons)
