Description
N,N-Dimethylformamide (DMF) is an organic compound with the chemical formula C3H7NO. It is a clear, colorless liquid with a faint amine-like odor. DMF is a versatile solvent with a high solubility for a wide range of organic and inorganic compounds. It is commonly used in chemical synthesis, polymer processing, and as a reaction solvent in various industrial processes. DMF also finds applications in pharmaceutical manufacturing, peptide synthesis, and as a solvent for cellulose-based materials. However, due to health and environmental concerns, its use is regulated in some regions.
