1-(Dimethylamino)tetradecane Usage And Synthesis

Chemical Properties

Liquid

Uses

Barlene(R) tertiary amines are used as chemical intermediates for the manufacture of quaternary ammonium compounds, amine oxide and betaine surfactants

Uses

N,N-Dimethyltetradecylamine (cas# 112-75-4) is a compound useful in organic synthesis.

Uses

N,N-Dimethyltetradecylamine has been used for the synthesis of 1,6-bis(N,N-tetradecyl dimethylammonium adipate), a counterion coupled gemini (cocogem) surfactant.
It may also be used in the following studies:

• For the isolation of recombinant botulinum neurotoxin fragments in the yeast Pichia pastoris by cell permeabilization method.
• Synthesis of gemini surfactants belonging to the series of alkanediyl-α,ω-bis-(dimethylalkyl ammonium bromide, which were evaluated as corrosion inhibitors of iron in hydrochloric acid medium.
• Preparation of cationic gemini surfactant of the type N-alkanediyl 1,2-ethane bis(dimethyl ammonium bromide).

Definition

A liquidcationic detergent; acid stable.

General Description

A light yellow liquid with a fishlike odor. Insoluble in water and less dense than water. Hence floats on water. Contact may irritate skin, eyes and mucous membranes. May be toxic by ingestion, inhalation or skin absorption. Used to make other chemicals.

Air & Water Reactions

Insoluble in water.

Reactivity Profile

DIMETHYLTETRADECANAMINE neutralizes acids in exothermic reactions to form salts plus water. May be incompatible with isocyanates, halogenated organics, peroxides, phenols (acidic), epoxides, anhydrides, and acid halides. Flammable gaseous hydrogen may be generated in combination with strong reducing agents, such as hydrides.

Health Hazard

TOXIC; inhalation, ingestion or skin contact with material may cause severe injury or death. Contact with molten substance may cause severe burns to skin and eyes. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.

Fire Hazard

Combustible material: may burn but does not ignite readily. When heated, vapors may form explosive mixtures with air: indoors, outdoors and sewers explosion hazards. Contact with metals may evolve flammable hydrogen gas. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may pollute waterways. Substance may be transported in a molten form.
