2-[2-(Dimethylamino)ethoxy]ethanol is an organic compound with the molecular formula C6H15NO2 and is a liquid at room temperature. Dimethylaminoethoxyethanol is polyfunctional, having a tertiary amine, ether and hydroxyl functionality. Like other organic amines, it acts as a weak base.
Dimethylaminoethoxyethanol is manufactured by reacting dimethylamine and ethylene oxide. [2] Other methods are also available producing streams rich in the substance which then need to be further purified. [3]
As dimethylaminoethoxyethanol is weakly basic, [4] it has been studied as a method of absorbing Greenhouse gases and in particular carbon dioxide. [5] [6] [7] [8]
Dimethylaminoethoxyethanol is used extensively in surfactants which have also been evaluated as corrosion inhibitors. [9] Surfactants prepared are usually cationic and may also be used as a biocide. [10] This is particularly important for oilfield applications against Sulfate-reducing microorganisms.
The material has other uses which include:
The toxicity of dimethylaminoethoxyethanol has been extensively studied. [14]
