Dioctylamine (Cat No.:R026412) is a secondary aliphatic amine composed of two linear octyl chains attached to a central nitrogen atom. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a faint amine odor and is primarily used as an intermediate in organic synthesis. Due to its lipophilic nature and surface-active properties, dioctylamine is utilized in the production of surfactants, corrosion inhibitors, lubricants, and agrochemicals. It also serves as a building block in the manufacture of pharmaceuticals and specialty chemical formulations.
