Product Description

Product Name	N-Methylformamide (NMF) (Monomethylformamide / N-Formylmethylamine)
CAS NO.	123-39-7
Formula & Weight	C2H5NO (MW: 59.07)
Chemical Structure
Technical Specifications	Appearance: Colorless transparent liquid Assay (GC): ≥ 99.5% Moisture: ≤ 0.05% (Low Water Content) Color (Hazen): ≤ 10 Methanol Content: ≤ 0.1% Refractive Index (20°C): 1.430 - 1.433 Flash Point: > 111°C (High Safety)
Key Applications	A versatile polar solvent and chemical intermediate: Agrochemicals (Major Use): Critical intermediate for the synthesis of insecticides and acaricides, specifically Amitraz and Formamidine derivatives. Pharmaceutical Synthesis: Used as a solvent and reagent in the production of cephalosporins and other APIs requiring high polarity environments. Petrochemicals: An effective selective extraction solvent for separating aromatic hydrocarbons from aliphatic mixtures. Electrochemicals: Used in electrolyte formulations for capacitors and batteries due to its high dielectric constant.
Packaging & Storage	Storage: Hygroscopic. Store in a cool, dry, well-ventilated area. Keep container tightly closed.
