Description

N-methylaminoethanol, also known as 2-amino-1-propanol or MEA, is an organic compound with the formula CH3NHCH2CH2OH. It is a colorless liquid with a faint ammonia-like odor. It is a primary amine and is miscible with water and many organic solvents. MEA is used as an absorbent in the removal of carbon dioxide from gas streams, particularly in the production of natural gas and ammonia. It is also used as a solvent and in the synthesis of pharmaceuticals and pesticides. MEA can be synthesized by the reaction of ethylene oxide with methylamine. It is a relatively weak base and is susceptible to oxidation in the presence of air. MEA has been shown to be toxic to aquatic life, and it can also be harmful to humans if inhaled or ingested. Research on MEA is ongoing to improve its efficiency as an absorbent and to mitigate its environmental impact.'
