Морфолин (110-91-8)

Product: Morpholine Properties: 1) Morpholine is a hygroscopic weak basic, oily and volatile liquid; with a characteristic amine odor; melting point -5 C, boiling point at 129 C; miscible with water and with many alcohol organic solvents such methanol, ethanol, acetone, ethers, BTX (it is used as a solvent itself), but has limited solubility in alkaline solutions. 2) It decomposes on heating resulting toxic nitrogen oxides and violently reacts with strong oxidants resulting fire hazard and attacking copper and its compounds. 3) It can be prepared by the reductive ammonation of diethylene glycol with hydrogen, by the dehydration of diethanolamine with a strong acid (oleum) and by heating bis(chloroethyl)ether with excess ammonia. It is a cyclic amino ether as well as a secondary amine. 1,4-Dioxane is the form which nitrogen atom is replaced by oxygen. The ether property of morpholine is typically inert. The secondary amine property involves in the most chemical reactions. Morpholine is a versatile chemical. Usage:It is used as a solvent itself for resins, dyes, and waxes.(e.g. N-methylmorpholine, N-ethylmorpholine) are used as a catalyst for the production of polyurethane foams. Nitrogen in ring system involves in the introduction of sterically demanding asymmetric center to achieve effective stereocontrol. Morpholine has a similar volatility with water. It is used as a pH adjustment additive in fossil fuel and steam systems as a corrosion inhibitor. CAS No:110-91-8
