Storage NotesStore in a cool, dry, dark place at 2-8°C under an inert atmosphere (nitrogen or argon). Aromatic amines are readily oxidized and discolor upon exposure to air, light, and heat. Keep container tightly sealed. Avoid contact with strong oxidizing agents and strong acids. Handle with nitrile gloves and goggles in a fume hood.
Lead Time10 days
An aromatic amine used primarily as an organic synthesis intermediate. It is a key building block in the manufacture of the herbicide flufenacet (used for pre-emergence control of grasses and broadleaf weeds in corn, soybeans, and wheat). It also serves as a pharmaceutical intermediate, where it undergoes acylation, sulfonylation, or isocyanate coupling to prepare amide, sulfonamide, and urea derivatives.
