N-Ethyl-m-toluidine
N-Ethyl-m-toluidine (CAS: 102-27-2) is a secondary aromatic amine supplied as a colorless to light brown liquid that darkens on storage. It is a standard intermediate in the dye and pigment industry.
Its reactive nitrogen and activated ring make it a useful coupling component for azo and fluoran dyes.
It also supports the production of thermal-paper colour formers and certain agrochemicals.
It should be stored closed and cool, away from light, air and oxidisers. Buyers typically check assay by GC, moisture, colour and low dialkylated impurity.
• Dye manufacturing: coupling component for azo, disperse and reactive dyes. Its structure gives good coupling activity and shade strength.
• Thermal-paper colour formers: intermediate for fluoran leuco dyes used in thermal and pressure-sensitive papers. These colour formers are the basis of many thermal printing papers.
• Agrochemical and fine-chemical synthesis: building block for substituted aniline derivatives. It also serves in crop-protection intermediates.
• Pigment and ink intermediates: used in synthesis of rhodamine-type and other bright organic colorants for inks and coatings.
