2-Ethoxyethylamine (EEA) CAS 110-76-9

Aure Chemical: Reliable Supplier of Industrial-Grade 2-Ethoxyethylamine

2-Ethoxyethylamine (EEA), CAS 110-76-9, is a functionalized primary amine that also contains an ether linkage (an amino ether). Its unique structure—combining the reactivity of a primary amine ($\text{NH}_2$) with the stability and solvent properties of an ethoxy group (CH₃CH₂O– )—makes it a highly versatile intermediate. EEA is a colorless, highly volatile liquid, used extensively as a building block in complex organic synthesis.
