N-Methylacetamide

CAS: 79-16-3
Molecular Formula: C3H7NO
Molecular Weight:73.09 
Product description:By reaction with methylamine and ethyl acetate. Mixture of ethyl acetate and 65% of methylamine, heated to around 60 ℃, the reaction of 4, day and night to no longer have statified phenomenon, namely the reaction finished. Vacuum distillation recycling ethanol, collected 95-110 ℃ (4.0 kPa) fraction and N - methyl ethyl amide.1. Because it has dissolved organic matter other excellent properties so commonly used as a solvent in organic synthesis, in the pharmaceutical industry is used more widely, such as synthesis of cephalosporins, it is used and as a solvent. N - methyl ethyl amide have catalytic effect, for some chemical reactions in nonpolar solvent is a deacidifying agent, so the current widely used. 2. Used as a pesticide intermediates.
