| | Dimethylamine hydrochloride Usage And Synthesis |
| Chemical Properties | White, foliage-like crystals with a melting point of 171°C. Highly soluble in water, soluble in alcohol and chloroform, and insoluble in ether. Exhibits deliquescence. | | Uses | Dimethylamine hydrochloride is a precursor to several industrially significant compounds. | | Uses | As accelerator in vulcanizing rubber, tanning, manufacture of detergent soaps, or attracting boll weevils to exterminate them. As reagent for Mg. | | Uses | Dimethylamine hydrochloride is used as an intermediate in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals like ranitidine and metformin, tramadol and amlodipine. It is used as a precursor of atrazine. It is associated with sodium acetate and used to carry out the Willgerodt- Kindler reaction to prepare amides. Its free base reacts with carbon disulfide to get dimethyldithiocarbamate which is used in rubber vulcanization. It is involved in the synthesis of dimethyl-(1-methyl-pyrrol-2-ylmethyl)-amine by reacting with 1-methyl pyrrole and formaldehyde. | | Application | Dimethylamine hydrochloride serves as a foundational material for organic synthesis and is utilized as a catalyst and magnesium reagent in acetylation analysis. It has been used in producing hexamethylmelamine-methyl-14C and in preparing standard solutions of methylamine (MA), dimethylamine (DMA), trimethylamine (TMA), and trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) to assess the presence of methylamines and trimethylamine-N-oxide in particulate matter. | | Preparation | Dimethylamine hydrochloride is obtained from the salt formation of dimethylamine and hydrochloric acid. | | Flammability and Explosibility | Nonflammable | | Purification Methods | Crystallise the salt from hot CHCl3 or absolute EtOH. It also recrystallises from MeOH/ether solution. Dry it in a vacuum desiccator over H2SO4, then P2O5. Hygroscopic. [Beilstein 4 IV 132.] |
