Synthesis and properties of N,N-Diethylethanamine:
N,N-Diethylethanamine is prepared by the alkylation of ammonia with ethanol:
NH3 + 3 C2H5OH → N(C2H5)3 + 3 H2O

The pKa of protonated N,N-Diethylethanamine is 10.75, and it can be used to prepare buffer solutions at that pH. 
The hydrochloride salt, N,N-Diethylethanamine hydrochloride (triethylammonium chloride), is a colorless, odorless, and hygroscopic powder, which decomposes when heated to 261 °C.

N,N-Diethylethanamine is soluble in water to the extent of 112.4 g/L at 20 °C.
N,N-Diethylethanamine is also miscible in common organic solvents, such as acetone, ethanol, and diethyl ether.
Laboratory samples of N,N-Diethylethanamine can be purified by distilling from calcium hydride.

In alkane solvents N,N-Diethylethanamine is a Lewis base that forms adducts with a variety of Lewis acid such as I2 and phenols. 
Owing to its steric bulk, N,N-Diethylethanamine forms complexes with transition metals reluctantly.

N,N-Diethylethanamine is commonly employed in organic synthesis as a base. 
For example, N,N-Diethylethanamine is commonly used as a base during the preparation of esters and amides from acyl chlorides.

Such reactions lead to the production of hydrogen chloride which combines with N,N-Diethylethanamine to form the salt N,N-Diethylethanamine hydrochloride, commonly called triethylammonium chloride. 
This reaction removes the hydrogen chloride from the reaction mixture, which can be required for these reactions to proceed to completion (R, R' = alkyl, aryl):
R2NH + R'C(O)Cl + Et3N → R'C(O)NR2 + Et3NH+Cl−

Like other tertiary amines, N,N-Diethylethanamine catalyzes the formation of urethane foams and epoxy resins. 
N,N-Diethylethanamine is also useful in dehydrohalogenation reactions and Swern oxidations.

N,N-Diethylethanamine is readily alkylated to give the corresponding quaternary ammonium salt:
RI + Et3N → Et3NR+I−

N,N-Diethylethanamine salts like any other tertiary ammonium salts are used as an ion-interaction reagent in ion interaction chromatography, due to their amphiphilic properties. 
Unlike quaternary ammonium salts, tertiary ammonium salts are much more volatile, therefore mass spectrometry can be used while performing analysis.

Niche uses of N,N-Diethylethanamine:
N,N-Diethylethanamine is used to give salts of various carboxylic acid-containing pesticides, e.g. Triclopyr and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid
N,N-Diethylethanamine is the active ingredient in FlyNap, a product for anesthetizing Drosophila melanogaster.
N,N-Diethylethanamine is used in mosquito and vector control labs to anesthetize mosquitoes. 
This is done to preserve any viral material that might be present during species identification.

Also, the bicarbonate salt of N,N-Diethylethanamine (often abbreviated TEAB, triethylammonium bicarbonate) is useful in reverse phase chromatography, often in a gradient to purify nucleotides and other biomolecules.
N,N-Diethylethanamine was found during the early 1940s to be hypergolic in combination with nitric acid and was considered a possible propellant for early hypergolic rocket engines.

N,N-Diethylethanamine—often abbreviated as TEA or Et3N—is a colorless, volatile liquid used in creating polyurethane dispersions (PUDs). 
N,N-Diethylethanamine is commonly employed in organic synthesis as a base for a variety of applications, such as a catalytic solvent in chemical syntheses, a corrosion inhibitor, and a curing and hardening agent for polymers.

N,N-Diethylethanamine accomplishes this by ionizing the carboxylic acid in the polyurethane prepolymer. 
The N,N-Diethylethanamine neutralizes the acid in the prepolymer, forming an ionized acid-base pair that makes it dispersible—without being ionized, it would not have the required affinity for water necessary for creating a polymeric dispersion.

However, N,N-Diethylethanamine has recently faced challenges and regulatory pressure due to its hazardous vapors. 
Even short-term exposure to the vapors can cause severe irritation to the eyes and skin. 

In addition to N,N-Diethylethanamine 's human health concerns, N,N-Diethylethanamine is considered a volatile organic compound (VOC) and has an unpleasant, potent odor that is sometimes described as the smell of expired fish.
While N,N-Diethylethanamine does offer some unique advantages for the production of PUDs, N,N-Diethylethanamine-free PUD formulations can be just as effective with the right formulation changes—without hazards to human health.

One alternative to N,N-Diethylethanamine is dimethylethanolamine (DMEA). 
N,N-Diethylethanamine requires a bit more attention in the processing of PUDs because DMEA has reactive alcohol attached (ethanol substituent). 
That means it needs to be added to the water phase, unlike N,N-Diethylethanamine which can be added directly to the prepolymer. 

DMEA also has a higher boiling point (less volatile) than N,N-Diethylethanamine, so it takes longer to leave the coating, which can reduce the chemical resistance of the coating when tested.
DMEA can provide a colloidally stable particle size and dispersion; in large part due to its ability not to shock the prepolymer when its added to the water. 
However, N,N-Diethylethanamine is still a relatively undesirable VOC with a poor odor profile.

Inorganic or metal bases, such as sodium and potassium hydroxide, can be used as a N,N-Diethylethanamine alternative for ionizing acid substituents on polymers. 
However, these materials can be difficult to work with and can negatively impact final PUD qualities. 
Because metals such as sodium form such strong bases, they tend to shock or agglomerate the prepolymer as it is added to water, resulting in a gritty/“dirty” dispersion of poor quality that contains polymer that is not stable in water and result in sediment in the container. 

Moreover, metal bases such as sodium are permanent or non-volatile and may be expected to negatively impact coating performance in terms of poorer water resistance.  
However, they will not contribute to the VOC emissions of the coating, improving the sustainability of the product.

Another alternative is ammonia, which is commonly used to adjust the pH or create ionized acrylic emulsions. 
However, N,N-Diethylethanamine is difficult to use to prepare PUDs due to their high level of reactivity with isocyanates. 
Without taking special precautions, ammonia will react with the isocyanate functional prepolymer during the dispersion process and convert the isocyanate into urea. 
The resulting urea will not react further to build the molecular weight of the prepolymer. 

Polymers need to be a certain molecular weight to function properly and the use of ammonia will likely result in a lower molecular weight polymer. 
If the molecular weight becomes too low for the final product, it can impact final performance, possibly to such an extent that the product no longer behaves like a solid, but more like a liquid. In other words - a tacky material that is not useful as a protective coating. 
Thus, ammonia, or any amine with hydrogen attached, would be problematic to use to disperse an anionic water-dispersible polyurethane containing active isocyanate for creating a high molecular weight polymer.

Nonionic dispersing groups can be used to make a PUD and avoid using N,N-Diethylethanamine or the need for any other counter ion. 
However, these types of polymers are typically inferior to anionic PUDs as protective coatings. 

This is due to the permanance of the water-soluble nonionic dispersing material, as well as the relatively large amounts needed to produce polymeric dispersion of a particle size required for a stable dispersion in water. 
This results in a coating with significantly higher sensitivity to water and other polar solvents compared to that obtainable from an anionic dispersion.

Synthesis without N,N-Diethylethanamine can be more challenging, but from an application standpoint, it doesn’t change how the PUR could be used. 
However, properties such as chemical resistance, hardness, and film formation can be negatively impacted should the formulation or composition not be as robust as that when using N,N-Diethylethanamine-based PUDs.

From an applications standpoint, formulating a N,N-Diethylethanamine-free PUD is no different than formulating one that contains the material. 
However, should a formulator change from a N,N-Diethylethanamine-containing PUD to a N,N-Diethylethanamine-free alternative, they should reevaluate other raw material choices, particularly co-solvent selection. 
Solvent choice is integral to film formation, which in turn will impact coating performance, i.e. hardness, barrier properties, and chemical resistance. 
If a decrease in performance in these areas is observed, solvent loading should be reoptimized to restore performance.

When evaluating a N,N-Diethylethanamine free PUD for the first time, a normal formulation methodology should be followed. 
Materials should be screened individually for compatibility and effectiveness with the resin. 
The best raw materials from each screening study should then be combined into an initial coating formulation for testing. 
Based on those results, the formula is refined (optimized) and retested. 
This iterative process continues until the desired performance is obtained.

N,N-Diethylethanamine is a base commonly used in organic chemistry to prepare esters and amides from acyl chlorides. 
Like other tertiary amines,it catalyzes the formation of urethane foams and epoxy resins.

N,N-Diethylethanamine is commonly employed in organic synthesis as a base, most often in the preparation of esters and amides from acyl chlorides.
Such reactions lead to the production of hydrogen chloride which combines with N,N-Diethylethanamine to form the salt N,N-Diethylethanamine hydrochloride, commonly called triethylammonium chloride. 

This reaction removes the hydrogen chloride from the reaction mixture, which is required for these reactions to proceed to completion (R, R' = alkyl, aryl):
R2NH + R'C(O)Cl + Et3N → R'C(O)NR2 + Et3NH+Cl-

Like other tertiary amines, it catalyzes the formation of urethane foams and epoxy resins. 
N,N-Diethylethanamine is also useful in dehydrohalogenation reactions and Swern oxidations.

N,N-Diethylethanamine is readily alkylated to give the corresponding quaternary ammonium salt:
RI + Et3N → Et3NR+I-

A tertiary amine that is ammonia in which each hydrogen atom is substituted by an ethyl group.
N,N-Diethylethanamine is a colorless, highly volatile, extremely flammable liquid, that is not soluble in water but is well soluble in the most organic solvents. 
N,N-Diethylethanamine has a strong unpleasant fish odor.

Method of obtaining of N,N-Diethylethanamine:
N,N-Diethylethanamine is obtained by the alkylation of ammonia with ethanol.
