Dimethylformamide | |
| Dimethylformamide(DMF)Is a transparent liquid, soluble in water and most organic solvents.It is a common chemical reaction solvent pure Dimethylformamide was no smell, but the Industrial grade or deterioration of the Dimethylformamide have Anabaena taste, it contains dimethyl amine impurities. The name is because it is a source of amide (amide acid) and dimethyl substituted derivatives, while the two methyl are located in the N (nitrogen) atoms. Dimethylformamide is a high Boiling point: the polar (hydrophilic) aprotic solvent, can promote the conduct of SN2 reaction mechanism. | |
