  • Applications

    N-Ethyl-N-benzylaniline (CAS 92-59-1) is primarily used as an organic synthesis intermediate in the chemical and pigment industries, serving as a building block for arylamine derivatives employed in azo dyes and related pigments. It is also evaluated as a precursor for pharmaceutical and agrochemical intermediates, enabling further functionalization in fine chemicals. Additionally, it is occasionally used as a fragrance industry intermediate for scent formulation, and it can serve as a precursor or additive in polymer, coatings and ink formulations where an aromatic tertiary amine moiety is advantageous. Its use is subject to local regulations and formulation limits.
