D 1977 (OTTO) 2-Dimethylaminoethanol, puriss, 99%+ Cas 108-01-0 - used as a ligand in the copper-catalyzed amination of aryl bromides and iodides. Its characteristics arise from its chemical features as well as from its overall structural similarity to chemical compounds involved in primary metabolism and neurophysiology. D 1977 (OTTO) 2-Dimethylaminoethanol, puriss, 99%+ Cas 108-01-0 - used as a chemical intermediate for antihistamines and local anesthetics; as a catalyst for curing epoxy resins and polyurethanes; and as a pH control agent for boiler water treatment.
