2-({2-[(2-Aminoethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)ethanol(CAS: 1965-29-3)

2-({2-[(2-Aminoethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)ethanol (CAS: 1965-29-3) is a colorless, viscous liquid. Its molecular weight is approximately 150.26 g/mol. It is highly soluble in water and ethanol. Chemically, it is a primary amine with a hydroxyl group, making it reactive with acids and bases. It is stable under normal conditions but should be stored in a cool, dry place away from strong acids and oxidizers.

2-({2-[(2-Aminoethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)ethanol (CAS: 1965-29-3) is synthesized via the reaction of ethylene diamine with ethylene oxide. The process involves catalytic conditions, typically using an acidic catalyst like sulfuric acid, and can yield up to 95% purity under optimal conditions. The reaction is exothermic and requires careful temperature control.

2-({2-[(2-Aminoethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)ethanol (CAS: 1965-29-3) is used in various industries, including pharmaceuticals, where it serves as a starting material for the synthesis of drugs. It is also used in the production of polyelectrolytes and in the formulation of some surfactants. Its use in semiconductor manufacturing is limited but it can be used as a cleaning agent in fine chemical processing.

When handling 2-({2-[(2-Aminoethyl)amino]ethyl}amino)ethanol (CAS: 1965-29-3), it is important to use personal protective equipment (PPE) such as gloves and safety goggles. The compound should be stored in a cool, dry place away from strong acids and oxidizers. In case of a spill, handle it in a fume hood and follow safety data sheet (SDS) guidelines for disposal. Always consult the SDS for specific handling instructions.
