Dimethylformamide is an organic compound with the formula (CH3)2NC(O)H. Commonly abbreviated as DMF (although this initialism is sometimes used for dimethylfuran or dimethyl fumarate), this colorless liquid is miscible with water and the majority of organic liquids.
DMF is a common solvent for chemical reactions. Dimethylformamide is odorless, but technical-grade or degraded samples often have a fishy smell due to the impurity of dimethylamine. Dimethylamine degradation impurities can be removed by sparging degraded samples with an inert gas such as argon or by sonicating the samples under reduced pressure. As its name indicates, it is a derivative of formamide, the amide of formic acid. DMF is a polar (hydrophilic) aprotic solvent with a high boiling point. It facilitates reactions that follow polar mechanisms, such as SN2 reactions.
The primary use of DMF is as a solvent with a low evaporation rate. DMF is used in the production of acrylic fibers and plastics. It is also used as a solvent in peptide coupling for pharmaceuticals, in the development and production of pesticides, and in the manufacture of adhesives, synthetic leathers, fibers, films, and surface coatings.
It is used as a reagent in the Bouveault aldehyde synthesis and in the Vilsmeier-Haack reaction, another useful method of forming aldehydes.
It is a common solvent in the Heck reaction.
It is also a common catalyst used in the synthesis of acyl halides, in particular, the synthesis of acyl chlorides from carboxylic acids using oxalyl or thionyl chloride. The catalytic mechanism entails the reversible formation of an imidoyl chloride.
DMF penetrates most plastics and makes them swell. Because of this property, DMF is suitable for solid-phase peptide synthesis and as a component of paint strippers.
DMF is used as a solvent to recover olefins such as 1,3-butadiene via extractive distillation.
It is also used in the manufacturing of solvent dyes as an important raw material. It is consumed during the reaction.
Pure acetylene gas cannot be compressed and stored without the danger of explosion. Industrial acetylene is safely compressed in the presence of dimethylformamide, which forms a safe, concentrated solution. The casing is also filled with agamassan, which renders it safe to transport and use.
Proper uses
As a cheap and common reagent, DMF has many uses in a research laboratory.
DMF is effective at separating and suspending carbon nanotubes and is recommended by the NIST for use in near-infrared spectroscopy of such.
DMF can be utilized as a standard in proton NMR spectroscopy allowing for a quantitative determination of an unknown compound.
In the synthesis of organometallic compounds, it is used as a source of carbon monoxide ligands.
DMF is a common solvent used in electrospinning.
DMF is commonly used in the solvothermal synthesis of Metal-Organic Frameworks
